An equal blend of fresh, crisp Pinot Blanc and the subtle fruit of Pinot Noir; an outstanding example of the elegance that can be achieved in England’s cool climate.

About Carr Taylor
In 1969, David Carr Taylor’s vision became reality when he planted a vineyard on his East Sussex family estate. The inaugural harvest in 1976 yielded 2,000 bottles, marking the beginning of Carr Taylor’s success. Over four decades, we’ve cultivated a reputation for excellence, earning over 150 international awards. Our unique terroir, sheltered by the Hastings Ridge and benefiting from the Gulf Stream, allows us to produce crisp, aromatic wines with flavors echoing local fruits like green apple and pear.
Our vineyard’s gentle slope, low altitude, and clay loam soils create an ideal environment. We’ve adapted German viticulture research to thrive in England’s cool climate. Our Geneva Double Curtain trellising system optimizes yields and minimizes frost damage. As pioneers in English winemaking, we’ve evolved, replanting with Bacchus, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Blanc. Our rustic winery, converted from 100-year-old stables, houses state-of-the-art equipment.
From harvesting to bottling, every step is taken on-site to preserve the natural flavors. Our passion for winemaking shines through in every bottle. Visit us and taste the essence of East Sussex. Join the Carr Taylor family on a journey through the rolling hills, vineyards, and winemaking traditions that make our wines truly special.

Greyfriars Vineyard Yolande 2023 (6 Bottles) Puttenham, Surrey, England
UK MAINLAND DELIVERY INCLUDED
This wine is a blend of Pinot Gris, Chardonnay, Pinot Blanc and Pinot Noir from the 2023 vintage and has been crafted to create a light delicate, fresh but aromatic white blend that celebrates the very best of the North Downs.
The Chardonnay, Pinot Blanc and Pinot Noir were whole bunch pressed with the Chardonnay formed purely from the cuvee fraction of the whole bunch press. The Pinot Gris was crushed and destemmed with a 2-hour soak. There was an addition of tea leaf tannins to the tank fermented wine to reduce the amount of added sulphites. 24% of the Chardonnay was fermented and aged in barrel for six months and 10% of the Chardonnay came from our Chardonnay ‘solera’ reserve tank which we started in 2015
This is the fourth in a series of limited-edition wines celebrating a chapter in our local history and the unsung heroines of the SOE in World War II who trained at nearby Wanborough Manor.

Nutbourne Blush 2022 (6 Bottles) Pulborough, West Sussex, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
A delightful dry blush rosé wine made from a combined pressing of our Pinot Blanc and Pinot Noir, with just enough skin contact to give a lovely pale pink hue. With geranium on the nose, it has a gentle wild strawberry acidity, soft citrus, redcurrant and floral herbaceous notes on the palate.
A wine for quaffing on a summer's afternoon in an English country garden with friends. Serve with hors d’oeuvres or light salads, such as smoked duck breast with white peaches. Perfect with a little caviar on dill blini.
The art: Just as Nutbourne wines are only made from grapes grown on the estate, every bottle features Bridget Gladwin’s paintings. This painting depicts the top of our Southdown vineyard with the windbreak line of poplar trees in midsummer. You can feel the heat haze running through the image, ripening and developing the flavours in the grapes.

Beautifully balanced and white gold in colour, it has a natural richness and floral bouquet. A portion of this wine is matured in oak barrels then it is aged for 36 months in our underground cave before hand disgorge and finishing.
Nutty Vintage can compete with any sparkling wine in the world. Great for lavish entertaining and special celebrations, it is a lovely aperitif to pair with canapés, oysters, smoked salmon and quail eggs. It is also a treat to cut the sweetness of rich chocolatey desserts.
