Yes! @westwellwines.bsky.social has entered the chat! Hey you guys 👋
Hello there, we're Westwell 👋
We're located just beneath the Pilgrims Way on the North Downs in Kent.
All our wines are made on-site from fruit grown on our estate.
Our philosophy is simple: plant well, respect the soil + make great, honest wines from brilliant fruit.

English Tourism Week 2025 - spearheaded by #AstleyVineyard and @chrishaywood.bsky.social 🙌
Not quite sure how this happened, but Visit England (and Visit Worcestershire) have seemingly made me the face of English Wine tourism! Mental.

Superb to hear it! So that’s a Multi Vintage Blend rosé, Pinot Gris, Sauvignon Blanc, Ortega and Bacchus? 😋🥂
Barrel sampling. New wines coming soon. The 2024s are very promising indeed.

More and more wine people out there. Still lacking in the English wine front though

Love this capture by Ed Dallimore from last year’s #IEWA24 judging. Seen here in the stunning historic cellars at Averys in Bristol… Susy Atkins, Lee Isaacs, Ben Hulland, Elly Owen, and Tom Wedgery re-taste and discuss the gold medal stills… #EnglishWine

Ah great! Fun fact: John is the only person ever to show up for judging with us with his own glassware 😄

Any English wine producers lurking on Bluesky that I’m not following yet? Can anyone persuade a few more to start something over here?

Call to Action: Let’s get more #EnglishWine chat on here and develop the community. Instagram in 2016 seemed an important platform, and on launch we did things with #IEWAtakeover months, and showed the way with usage which did seem to draw producers in and make a difference. Let’s go! 😁🥂🔥 #TheIEWA
