Whitehall Vineyard, which launched just two weeks ago on 1st September, has announced they have been awarded three medals in The Independent English Wine Awards.
They report, “We won gold for the Bacchus 2019, silver for the Charlotte May Rosé and a bronze for the Madeline May Chardonnay. Our team has worked hard on developing the vineyard and our range of premium wines over the last four years and a result like this makes all the hard work worth while. We would like to thank Three Choirs for helping us and our viticulturist, Burt Martin, for their support and expertise to help us get where we are so far with the brand.
“Whitehall Vineyard, established in 2016, is a family-run vineyard in Lacock. It was founded by the Self family on Whitehall Farm, their family home for five generations since 1894.
“The vineyard was planted on 23rd April with 16,000 Rondo, Bacchus, Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier and Chardonnay vines covering a total of 11 acres below Nethercote Hill, a local landmark that has now lent its name to the Pinot Noir/Rondo wine.
“The idea of planting a vineyard has grown from a passion for wine, growing and producing quality produce from our farm, which is why we aspire to be your still wine of choice and be at the forefront of the English still wine movement that is up and coming.
