Our stunning seasonal menus are expertly crafted by our Wine Estate Head Chef, Chris Bailey and his talented team. The dishes are inspired by the relationships we’ve built with British farmers and suppliers as well as the food-friendly nature of our wines and the Sussex region. Our chefs are the driving force behind the success of our Vineyard restaurants, with dynamic menus that frequently change based on the season’s best produce. Dining at our Tasting Room Winery restaurant is a must for wine and food lovers.
Our Vineyard is located in the South Downs National Park, in East Sussex, where its unique climate and chalky soil create ideal grape-growing conditions. This is an ideal spot to enjoy the rolling vistas and warm climate. The Tasting Room offers incredible views across the Vineyard and wider estate which creates a unique dining experience, whereas the Flint Barns Dining Room feels cosy and remote. There is something very special about enjoying great wine and great food in such a special place.
