HERITAGE
“Growing good produce is in our soul…”
BUBBLING WITH CHARACTER
Augusta and Robert are the fifth generation of the family to farm the fields now flourishing with vines.
And thanks to the rest of the family, parents Robert and Brenda, sister Georgia and husband Roy, and all the children, Isabel, Hugo, Oliver, Jasmine and Hebe, we’re never short of a hand or two, and we hope the legacy will continue.
Together with land farmed on the historic Tichborne Estate, the farm stretches from the protected and ecologically diverse water meadows of the River Itchen, to the grassy rolling hills of the South Downs near Winchester. We have a busy working farm growing wheat, barley and oilseed rape. The grassland is home to our herd of traditional pedigree horned Hereford cattle.
Growing good produce is in our soul. And the terroir of the South Downs is perfect for producing the finest English sparkling wine. RAIMES English Sparkling.
