Charles Palmer Vineyards is a family run wine estate at Winchelsea in East Sussex. The estate’s vineyards benefit from an ideal climate for vines, with its close proximity to the sea, south facing slope, and its terroir in particular. The lowest part of the vineyard is a mere 5 metres above sea level and sits above a bed of Kimmeridgian clay similar to the Grand Crus of Burgundy.
Our vines were first planted in 2006 specifically with the aim of producing wines of the highest standard. Production is small and meticulous. Every effort is made to ensure only the best grapes are produced and selected according to the family’s exacting standards. The result is a small and exciting collection of vintage wines, each vintage is unique and characterful in its own way.
Our cellar door is open Wednesday to Saturday (11am to 5pm) and Sundays (12pm to 4pm).
If you would like to visit our Cellar Door for a Wine Tasting, you will need to contact us to pre book.
• 11AM – TALK AND GUIDED TASTING OF 3 WINES - £18PP
• 1PM – WINE AND CHEESE EXPERIENCE - £28PP (4 WINES PAIRED WITH 4 LOCAL CHEESES)
• 3PM – TALK AND GUIDED TASTING OF 4 WINES - £23PP
However, if you simply fancy a stroll on the 1066 Country Walk, or are visiting via car, you can still sample the wines before purchasing by the glass and bottle, you do not need to make a booking for this. In the drier months, we open our beautiful trail which runs through the vines and is approximately a 25-minute stroll.
We also work closely with a selection of fantastic local Chefs who can offer tailored dining experiences throughout the year.
Accommodation at the beautifully restored Wickham Manor is available for those that would like to stay over.
