From the Vineyard - Ridgeview Estate

Monday 4th August 2025

From the Vineyard is our wine initiative, celebrating the finest examples of English winemaking.

This month, we are delighted to showcase Ridgeview Estate, an award-winning English sparkling wine producer based in Ditchling Common, East Sussex.

Nestled in the foothills of the South Downs, Ridgeview has been pioneering English sparkling wine since 1995. A family-founded estate with a global reputation, Ridgeview crafts traditional method sparkling wines from classic grape varieties – Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier – grown in England’s cool climate.

As a certified B Corporation and founder member of Sustainable Wines of Great Britain, Ridgeview is committed to producing world-class wines with care, craft and conscience. Served at Royal occasions and state banquets, Ridgeview’s wines are renowned for their elegance, complexity and expressive fruit character.

This month, we will be showcasing their spectacular Blanc de Blancs 2020 - a pale golden wine with aromas of ripe orchard fruit and honeyed apricot. On the palate, it’s rich and bright, offering flavours of baked apple and warm peach, beautifully balanced by fresh acidity and hints of sweet spice.

A selection of other Ridgeview wines will also be available by the glass throughout.

On Thursday, 14th August 2025, we are thrilled to welcome Mardi Roberts, Prestige Account Director at Ridgeview, for an exclusive complimentary tasting of their wines. Guests with a dinner reservation that evening are invited to join this special experience.

In addition, only during the month of August, we’ll be serving the Ridgeview Bloomsbury NV with our afternoon teas and crafting a unique cocktail featuring their exceptional wine.
