Whitewolfe Estate |
Firm believers that wines are made in the vines, Claire and Luke's grower-led approach shows why the Kits Coty region is fast becoming one of England’s most prized Chardonnay growing areas.
Whitewolfe Estates was founded in 2019 by Clare Whitehead and Luke Wolfe. They met while studying oenology and viticulture at Plumpton College and in 2018 saw them acquire a small, 10-hectare vineyard in the Kits Coty region of Kent’s North Downs. In the careful hands of Clare and Luke, the untapped potential of this special place is being realised. Their grower-led approach shows why the Kits Coty region is fast becoming one of England’s most prized Chardonnay growing areas.
Clare juggles Whitewolfe with an award-winning career in wine education at Liberty Wines, Luke also set up a vineyard management and consultancy business, Agro-Pro, which specialises in cool
climate viticulture,
Whitewolfe prides themselves on being Chardonnay growing specialists, producing the highest quality grapes for some of the best English wine makers. Clones were chosen based on their suitability for the chalk soil on the North Kent Downs allowing premium quality grapes to be sustainably farmed for English still and sparkling wines.
The ‘KC’ series was developed as an innovative range of Chardonnays from the Whitewolfe Vineyard in the Kits Coty region of Kent’s North Downs
