Tinwood Estate
Tinwood Estate
Tinwood Estate is a former lettuce farm turned South Downs vineyard, with a walk-in wine kitchen and eight lodges to stay in among the vines.
Tinwood was an iceberg lettuce farm before it was a vineyard. Aad Tukker bought the land in 1985 to grow salad; his son Art planted the first 28 acres of vines in 2007, and the estate now runs to more than 110 acres of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier on the flinty chalk at the edge of the South Downs National Park.
Cellar door tastings
Walk in and sit in the tasting room or out on the decking over the vines, no table reservation needed, for wine by the glass or a flight alongside food from the Vineyard Kitchen; bottles can be bought to take home.
