Sustainable Farming

We pride ourselves on a re-generative approach to farming. Our livestock and vegetable growing share the vineyard land and we minimise intervention, feed supplements and the use of chemical sprays.

Alongside the vines, Gregory Gladwin hand rears cattle and sheep. His beef is from Simmental cows crossed with Sussex or Angus bulls - the animals graze on the water meadows at Amberley in Summer, then return to the farm in the Winter months. The sheep graze among the vines and even assist with leaf-stripping during the growing season.

In a poly-tunnel at Nutbourne we grow produce for the cellar door and events, as well as our local pub, The Black Horse in Amberley.

Our beef is also available from the vineyard cellar door shop in a range of cuts and joints that are frozen and vacuum-packed
