VISIT TO Balfour Winery STAPLEHURST, Kent
Spread across 400 acres of the countryside in Kent, Balfour Winery is part of the Hush Heath Estate. Producing beer and cider alongside wine, they’re most famous for their Balfour Brut Rosé which was the first English wine to win both a gold medal and Trophy at the International Wine Challenge in 2007. It’s one of the most popular wineries near London to visit, particularly if you’re a fan of pink sparkling wine.
