The Wine

Larkhill Vineyard, planted in 2018 with Pinot Noir, Seyval Blanc, and Phoenix grape varieties, produces a distinct range of English wines. Their portfolio includes traditional bottle-fermented sparkling white and rosé, as well as a selection of critically acclaimed still wines. The vineyard had its first harvest in 2020.

Larkhill Vineyard has quickly garnered recognition for its quality. The Tetbury White 2022 earned a Silver Medal at the prestigious Independent English Wine Awards in 2024. More recently, their Cotswold Sparkling Brut was awarded another Silver Medal at the Independent English Wine Awards in 2025, highlighting their consistent quality across both still and sparkling categories. The vineyard operates its own winery on site, producing these single-estate wines.
