Thorrington Mill is nestled at the confluence of two streams, just 3 miles from the Essex coast. The south facing slopes are a suntrap tempered by North Sea breezes, perfectly suited for vines. In 2018 husband-and-wife team, Mark and Polly Baines, took over the family farm to convert these 12 acres into vineyards. They named the vineyard after their historic mill, one of the only working tidal mills in the country.
From high quality Burgundian and German clones, the Pinot Noir grapes undergo cold soaking followed by fermentation at controlled temperatures with gentle punch downs giving the wine its perfumed elegance. 9 months of maturation in used Burgundian oak enhances the supple texture. Only 4,000 bottles were made.

GREAT BRITAIN
It is thought that the Romans first introduced vines to England, however due to a combination of poor climate and the strong trading links with France and Italy (leading to a ready supply of wine), wine-making never really took off. Fast forward a few centuries and wine making is now a burgeoning industry because of improved wine making techniques and climate change.
