Joining me on this week's episode of The English Wine Diaries podcast is William Coren, the CEO and founder of House Coren, a vineyard and négociant, based near Horsham in West Sussex.
After ten years of wine retail and hospitality, William and his family decided to plant 30,000 vines in 2020, with the aim of creating innovative and high-quality English wines that are accessible to all.
Whilst waiting for Lower Lodge Vineyard's first harvest, William pioneered the launch of Boco by House Coren; a Charmat Method sparkling wine using grapes from other vineyards in England.
This year, House Coren released a rosé version of Boco and plans to add many more innovative wines to its portfolio in the coming years with the intention of breaking the mould to 'keep life interesting'.
We talk about the importance of provenance, the freedom winemakers in England have to experiment with different techniques and why a Prosecco-style English wine is not something to be frowned upon.
To find out more about what's in store for the Coren family, visit housecoren.co.uk and follow @housecoren on Instagram and facebook.
