A Celebration of Growing with Roebuck Estates
*English Fizz at Hampton Court Klaxon*
Last week, Ali and a group of media braved the increasingly thundery looking skies to head to RHS Hampton Court Palace Garden festival where ewpr client, Sussex’s Roebuck Estates, was the official sparkling sponsor - a first for English fizz!
Joining her were City AM’s Libby Brodie and English specialists Alice Griffiths and Rebecca Pitcairn. After a quick lunch on the banks of the Thames, they headed into the show and straight to the Roebuck Estates Tipi tent for a tasting with Head of Viticulture Jake Wicks.
Roebuck’s vision is to craft exceptional vintage sparkling wine every single year from its collection of vineyards throughout Sussex and Kent, and Jake took the group through the trilogy currently available from the 2018 vintage which he describes as “outstanding”.
Joining us was CEO Michael Kennedy who says that this collaboration “marks a significant milestone in our brand journey but also shows how exciting the English Sparkling Wine Category is right now” - never was a truer word spoken.
Thank you so much to the Roebuck team for hosting us in a busy, busy week.
(Oh, and can you spot the chef we ran into???)
