Chet Valley Vineyard
Chet Valley Vineyard is located in South Norfolk just 9 miles South of the Fine City of Norwich. Owner and winemaker John Hemmant produces award winning English Sparkling wine in the Classic method at his recently purpose built winery amongst the vines at Chet Valley using grapes grown and tended at his vineyard, pressed fermented and bottled all on site. The wines are Vegan friendly and Gluten free and are made using sustainable methods both on the vineyard and in the winery. The resulting wines are clean, crisp, refreshing and fruity and Johns sparkling wines are excellent for celebrations and al fresco dining. The winery has a cellar door shop and wines can be purchased on line or from the winery. Vineyard tours and tastings may be booked from April until October when the grapes are harvested. There is also an accessible and dog friendly holiday cottage on the vineyard called the Vine House. The patio doors open onto a terrace with views across the vines and fields beyond.
