Norfolk Grown. Norfolk Made. Norfolk Wine

Wine grown and made in Norfolk

Norfolk has become home to a remarkable collection of independent vineyards, producing everything from crisp, aromatic whites and elegant rosés to red, orange and sparkling wines. At The Norfolk Deli, our wine shelves have one simple rule: if it's not made in Norfolk, we don't sell it.

That means you can explore wines from vineyards across the county in one place – compare different producers, discover different grape varieties and styles, and perhaps find a Norfolk wine you hadn't encountered before.

What kind of Norfolk wine are you looking for?

Whether you already know what you enjoy or you're simply curious about what Norfolk's vineyards are producing, start by choosing a style.

RED WINE

Norfolk's cool climate produces reds that tend towards freshness rather than sheer weight, with Pinot Noir and other varieties creating wines with red-fruit, berry, spice and savoury characteristics.

WHITE WINE

From aromatic Bacchus to Solaris, Schönburger and other cool-climate varieties, white wine is one of the most exciting areas of Norfolk winemaking – fresh, expressive and particularly food-friendly.

ROSE WINE

Fresh, fruit-driven and made for considerably more than summer drinking. Discover Norfolk rosés made from varieties including Pinot Noir and Regent.

SHOP ORANGE WINE

SPARKLING WINE

Why Norfolk for wine?

Norfolk isn't simply somewhere that happens to have a few vineyards.

Its relatively dry climate, long summer daylight hours and variety of soils have encouraged an increasingly diverse group of growers and winemakers to establish vineyards across the county.

You'll find familiar international grapes such as Pinot Noir and Chardonnay alongside varieties particularly suited to the English climate, including Bacchus, Solaris, Seyval Blanc and Schönburger.

Those grapes are being turned into still and sparkling wines with very different personalities – which is why we think Norfolk wine is much more interesting when you explore several vineyards rather than just one.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Norfolk produce good wine?

Norfolk is now home to a growing number of established independent vineyards producing award-winning still and sparkling wines. The county is particularly interesting for aromatic whites such as Bacchus, but its vineyards also produce red, rosé, orange and sparkling wines.

Which grape varieties are grown in Norfolk?

They vary considerably between vineyards. Varieties you'll encounter include Bacchus, Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Solaris, Seyval Blanc and Schönburger, alongside other grapes selected for individual vineyard sites and the English climate.

Is Bacchus similar to Sauvignon Blanc?

There can be similarities. Both can produce highly aromatic wines with fresh acidity and flavours that might include citrus, gooseberry and herbaceous characteristics. However, Bacchus is a grape variety in its own right and individual wines can vary considerably.

Does Norfolk make red wine?

Yes. Norfolk vineyards produce red wines from varieties including Pinot Noir and other grapes suited to the English climate. They generally sit towards the fresher end of the red-wine spectrum rather than the very ripe, powerful styles associated with hotter wine regions.

Does Norfolk produce sparkling wine?

Yes. Norfolk vineyards make sparkling wines using several different techniques, including the traditional method, where the second fermentation takes place in the bottle, and the Charmat method, where it takes place in a pressurised tank.

Can I buy wines from several Norfolk vineyards in one order?

Yes. That's one of the main reasons we created our Norfolk wine range. Rather than ordering separately from individual vineyards, you can choose wines from several Norfolk producers and have them delivered together in one order.

Can I add Norfolk wine to a hamper?

Yes. Choose your wine alongside Norfolk food and drink from across our range to create your own hamper. It's an easy way to build a gift entirely around products from the county.

Do you deliver Norfolk wine across the UK?

We offer UK delivery across our online range, subject to our normal delivery terms and any restrictions applying to alcohol. You can also collect your order from The Norfolk Deli in Hunstanton.

How do Norfolk wines compare to French or New World wines?

Think crispness, purity, and vibrant aromatics rather than heavy, oaky styles. Norfolk wines lean toward a cool-climate profile similar to Loire Valley whites or English traditional-method sparkling wines. They’re refreshing, elegant, and wonderfully food-friendly.
