Hello and Welcome to Longdown Vineyard

Hello and Welcome to Longdown Vineyard

Hello Everyone,

My name is Holly and I have the pleasure of writing our very first newsletter. 

Thank you so much for signing up and becoming part of our vineyard journey. We’re incredibly excited to share this adventure with you and truly appreciate your support from the very beginning.

Over the past seven months there’s been plenty happening here in the vineyard. It’s been wet, frustrating and I know a lot more about labelling and packaging than I ever thought I would need to! But overall, it’s been amazing so far and we wanted to share some of the highlights with you.

Bishops Waltham

We have been busy preparing for the exciting seasons ahead and planning for this year’s harvest. The vines are growing well although, sadly, some of them were hit with frost last week. The joys of English weather!

Twyford

Work is well underway at our Twyford site. The new vines are settling in beautifully and the landscape is changing week by week. Our barn is being built as we speak and we hope to invite you to see the new vines later this summer once the ground has recovered.

Our Wines

The bottles of our Sparkling White and Rosé wine have arrived and are waiting for our sales to go live at the start of June. They are currently only half dressed as we are still waiting on the delivery of their foils but this should be any day now.
