Ham Street Wines is the project of husband & wife team Lucie and Jules, who planted four hectares of vines just on the edge the Romney marsh in Kent four years ago. Starting the project as a way of re-connecting with nature whilst still working full-time jobs in accounting, Lucie and Jules were quickly bitten by the regenerative agriculture bug, understanding that improving soil health, promoting biodiversity and doing as little as possible to disturb the natural balance was the key to healthy fruit, and happy wines. They are currently awaiting organic certification, but truly go above and beyond the minimum requirements, working with biodynamic teas and preparations, and having been no-till since 2021.

A single barrel release from the 2022 vintage, this is 100% Chardonnay fermented in barrel, then matured for 20 months before bottling in the summer of 2024. The result is a wine with intense minerality and freshness all balanced with a complex and long finish.
