Across the verdant flats from Barnsole and along the winding lane that follows the meandering course of the river Stour, stand the mighty crumbling walls of the Roman fort of Richborough. It is here, in the garden of England, that the first Pinot Noir vines arrived with the Legions in 44 a.d.
Barnsole perpetuates this viticultural tradition of two millennia by growing Pinot Noir, along with other grape varieties, to make quintessential English wines.
