Bottles of sparkling rose at the winery in Hastings

We were listening to Simon Mayo’s drivetime who the other day when we heard the manage from Alex Carr vineyards answering the homework question ‘how many grapes are there in a bottle of wine’. Alex Carr wines is one of our best-selling suppliers of vineyard tastings and tours, so it was great to hear them on national radio!

The vineyard is in the heart of the Battle of Hastings country and even one of the white wines is called 1066. The vineyard has been producing wines since 1971 and 2011 is proving to be an excellent year for the team having reaped nine awards so far this year alone.

If you want to know the answer to Simon Mayo’s homework question, how about buying a voucher for a vineyard tour and lunch for two at this lovely winery in East Sussex? That way you can find out the answer and taste some yummy English wines too, from the Vintage Brut Sparkling to the Ginger flavoured fruit wine. It’s great value too at just £50 for two, with lunch included!
