Many varieties are grown on the South facing slope of the vineyard here in Nottinghamshire. Below are a selection.
'Pinot Noir' is a black wine grape suited to outdoor cultivation. Compact clusters of thin-skinned fruit ripen mid to late season and require a cool climate to allow full development of flavour
Malbec is a purple grape variety used in making red wine. The grapes tend to have an inky dark color and robust tannins,
Pinot Meunier, is a variety of black wine grape most noted for being one of the three main varieties used in the production of Champagne.
Chardonnay is the world’s most popular and important grape for producing white wine, as well as Champagne, sparkling wine and dessert wine.
'Madeleine Angevine' is a white wine and dessert grape particularly suited to cooler areas owing to its relatively late flowering and early ripening. This reliable, heavy cropper produces sweet, citrus-flavoured grapes
Seyval blanc is a hybrid wine grape variety used to make white wines. Its vines ripen early, are productive and are suited to fairly cool climates.
