Here's my wish list of vineyards to visit in Britain. Surprising as it may seen to those in those in other countries, England has a growing (excuse the pun) wine industry. You can visit vineyards, buy the wines on site or at supermarkets, dine in restaurants and shop in gift shops. Here are a few:

Their wines are available in restaurants near their vineyards such as Tristan in Horsham as well as London theatres and concert halls.
More about Nyetimber in my later post after my visit.
