Prior to working in wine Adrian made his name in the independent music sector and has brought some of that spirit along with him into the English wine world. 

"Pelegrim" means Pilgrim in Middle English, paying homage to the historic Pilgrim's Way route that runs directly above the Westwell vineyard on the final leg to Canterbury.

The Pelegrim NV is a traditional bottle-fermented sparkling wine that is made from Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier and Chardonnay with reserve wines from previous vintages to give further complexity and a consistent extra dry non-vintage style.  The wines are lees-aged in bottle for 18-24 months to give depth and some biscuity aromas which only bottle-fermentation can deliver.
