Though not typically associated with wine, England has produced it since Roman times. Due to the country’s cool climate and rich soils, many vineyards planted in the middle of the 20th century are now paying dividends.
Climate is moderated by the Gulf Stream, and its chalk-based soils are amenable to sparkling wine production.
As for what English wine is, stylistically, there’s still room for interpretation.
“I don’t think we can pin down a typical English wine just yet, and why would we?” says Sam Lindo, winemaker at Camel Valley in the country’s South West region. “Everyone has the right to be different.”
