Wines of the Wolds

Paul Rose visits a vineyard in the Yorkshire Wolds.

Despite its cool climate, this northerly area of England is developing a reputation for wine production as a result of its rich soils and sunny south-facing slopes.

The Wolds boasts one of the most northerly vineyards in Britain at South Cave near the village of Welton.

Little Wold Vineyard was planted with vines in spring 2012 and its first harvest took place in 2014.

On a sunny day, you could be forgiven for thinking that you might be in Provence rather than deepest Yorkshire.
