Dorset
Nestled on England’s south coast, Dorset’s vineyards benefit from chalky soils and a mild maritime climate, producing wines of clarity, finesse and freshness. The region is especially known for its sparkling wines, where Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier and Chardonnay thrive, alongside increasingly impressive still whites.
