High Clandon Estate Vineyard

About

High Clandon Estate Vineyard uniquely specialises in singular, matured-vintage-only English sparkling Cuvées for which they are renowned for Gold Medal awards. 

In addition, their Tour, Talk, Tasting has twice been awarded Cellar Door of the Year winners for the unique experience and hospitality.

Visiting High Clandon; imagine the sweeping vistas and views across the Surrey Hills to London’s dramatic skyline; imagine walking in the wildflower meadows to the vineyard; imagine the gardens set with sculptures to delight; and experience their atmospheric Glass Barn for tastings. 

High Clandon was founded in 2004 by Bruce and Sibylla Tindale, is a small boutique vineyard and they are founder members of Vineyards of the Surrey Hills and Sustainable Vineyards of great Britain. 

Both have a zeal to create the quintessential English Quality Sparkling Wine made with the same grape varietals and geological strata as that of Champagne.

Their belief is a ‘hand-manicured’ vineyard will produce an exquisite English Cuvée; they are terroir-driven. Terroir is that mystical marriage of soil, of locale, of climate and cultivation produces the best luscious grapes, ripened to perfection, combined with expert wine-making results in ‘the expression of perfection’ in their Cuvées.

Every summer, High Clandon celebrates the launch of their next five-year-aged vintage Cuvée and hosts the marvellous Art and Sculptures in the Vineyard which shows over 180 works of art set in the wildflower meadows, the gardens and Glass Barn. No entrance fee is charged but a donation to Cherry Trees charity is requested and 10% of art sales go to the charity with no commission required from the pre-selected artists. So a win-win for charity, art and High Clandon!

Their product range consists of the vintage Cuvées in both standard and magnum format; then made from their Eau de vie de Vin, their Essence Liqueur and Cupid Blue Gin.
