Established in 2010 near the historic towns of Cirencester and Cheltenham, the estate boasts 9,750 vines planted on sunny, south-facing slopes. These vines yield up to 20,000 bottles of wine annually, alongside a selection of English spirits crafted from hand-harvested grapes.
The estate cultivates grape varieties such as Bacchus, Seyval Blanc, Phoenix, Pinot Noir, Regent, and Rondo, all chosen for their compatibility with the local climate, geography, and soil. Under the expertise of a skilled contract winemaker and distiller, these varieties are blended and balanced to produce an exceptional range of white, rosé, red, and sparkling wines, as well as spirits.
Poulton Hill Estate’s ethos centres on environmental stewardship. Beyond being environmentally conscious, the estate takes active steps to support sustainability. Rare-breed Jacob’s Sheep and Olde English Babydoll Southdown Sheep graze the vineyard and orchard, providing natural weed control and enriching the soil without damaging the vines. Wildflowers are planted to support the insect population, fostering biodiversity across the estate.
This commitment to sustainable practises ensures that every bottle produced at Poulton Hill Estate reflects not only the beauty of its Cotswold surroundings but also a dedication to preserving and enhancing the environment.

Henners Gardner Street Classic 2023 (6 Bottles) Herstmonceux, East Sussex, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
Gardner Street has the classic floral, elderflower note we have come to know of contemporary Bacchus, married with a touch of ripe stone fruit from the barrel fermented Chardonnay.
Sourced from vineyard partners in Essex and Kent we harvested the vineyard parcels separately and fermented as small lots to allow the expression of their respective sites to shine through. 30% of the blend was fermented in neutral 300L French oak barrels and
allowed to go through malolactic fermentation, while the remaining parcels were fermented at cool temperatures in stainless steel and did not go through malolactic fermentation.
