In the second episode of the English Mini-series, we explore Hampshire and the English viticulture with Nick Crombie, head Viticulturalist of Hambledon Vineyards.

Hambledon Vineyard is England's oldest commercial vineyard which was planted by Major General Sir Guy Salisbury-Jones in 1952. In the present day, current owner Ian Kellett has a meticulous, scientific approach to wine production and has researched his vineyards to understand their micro and macroclimate.

The wines are made solely Using Chardonnay, Pinot Meunier, and Pinot Noir, The Champagne varieties Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier are particularly successful alongside sparkling wines carbonated through bottle fermentation in the méthode traditionnelle.

With me today is Vineyard Manager of Hambledon vineyard Nick Cran-Crombie, who talks to us about Viticulture at Hambledon and the Hampshire vineyards and the projects that are going on at Hambledon Vineyards.

Interestingly Vineyards of Hampshire was the first regional English wine group to be formed, starting in 2015 with the primary aim of creating a strong, place-specific identity for the wines that almost all come from the spectacularly deep chalk soils of the county. They decided that by working collaboratively on events and creating a support network, they would have a far greater impact and a far greater chance of putting Hampshire on the map. 

With NICK CRAN-CROMBIE head Viticulturalist of Hambledon Vineyard, undertook qualifications at the Royal Horticultural Society alongside landscape gardening before joining the Hambledon Vineyard
