With English wine growing in popularity, Alex Black spoke to Tamara Roberts and Matt Strugnell from Ridgeview wine. When setting up the vineyard nearly 30 years ago, people were cynical of the potential of English viticulture. Tamara's parents Matt and Chris Roberts, however, recognised the similarities between the South of England and the Champagne region of France. Tamara and Matt discuss what makes a good site for a vineyard, this year's crop prospects and their optimism for the future.See for yourself at www.ridgeview.co.uk

Will English wine ever be taken seriously around the world? How can traditional wine making be a 21st century force for good? What is the key to grow from 'cottage industry' to major brand?   In this week's 5 Big Questions interview we talk to the multi award-winning CEO of Ridgeview Wine Estate, TAMARA ROBERTS.   Known for: CEO - Ridgeview President - International Wine & Spirit Competition 2020 Sussex Businessperson of the Year 2019 Sussex Business Woman of the Year 2017   The Big 5 Questions: How do you measure the impact of what you do? How should people/businesses be preparing for the future? How do we build the workforce we need for that future? How do you use creativity to solve problems? How do you collaborate?   Key quotes: “The intention was always to do traditional method sparkling from the beginning, from day one, and also to elevate the position of English wine, from farmers' markets where it was found mainly back in the nineties to the top end retailers and restaurants, which is where you'll find quite a lot of English wines these days, particularly the sparkling wines.” “When I talk about quality, it isn't just quality of the end product, it's of the entire process. All I've done is taken those values that were brought to the business by our parents and found ways in which to embed those into the business, and to free people or enable people to make decisions based on those values. People are empowered, provided they have a framework.” “We've had to build confidence with lots and lots of stakeholders.” “It switched quite dramatically in recent years from being very ‘cottage industry', bumbling along, until actually now we're being asked to sit on strategic boards for tourism because they've realised how important wine tourism is becoming for the region.” “We are from a place. We grow our grapes here, so we're very rooted where we are.” “I don't envy any business leader, it's incredibly difficult at the moment to prioritise, there are so many competing demands and expectations. When the pandemic came along for me it was a really good time to think. I'm going to value that.” "We are working on successions now. We have kids and lovely if they come in, but the gap between us and them is too big to bridge at this stage — and too stifling for them to be told, this is your destiny!” “Your innovation seems to take a long time, sometimes.”   Useful links: Ridgeview Tamara Roberts on LinkedIn Ridgeview CEO Tamara Roberts wins Sussex Business Woman Of The Year Tamara Roberts profile on The English Wine Collection Decanter World Wine Awards Visit Ditchling Denbies wine estate Tinwood wine estate B Corp certification Viticulture BSc at Plumpton College     This episode was recorded in October 2022 Interviewer: Richard Freeman for always possible Editor: CJ Thorpe-Tracey for Lo Fi Arts

Some of us have been ordering Piglet's pies online. So the next question is, which beer or wine goes with the pies? We asked Andy Wiseman, then of Sheridan Coopers Wines in 2013, and Tamara Roberts, CEO of Ridgeview Wine in 2017 for their views.

2020 International Presidency with the International Wine & Spirit Competition was announced. Not only is this the first time that an English wine producer has been appointed as President, but it’s the first time that a female has been selected for this highly regarded role. Best Sparkling Wine in the World by Decanter in 2010. when they were crowned ‘International Winemaker of the Year’ in 2018.

Tamara Roberts is the joint CEO & CFO of the multi-international award winning English sparkling wine producer, Ridgeview Wine Estate, established 25 years ago by her parents. Having joined the family business over 15 years ago as General Manager she has played a pivotal role in taking the business from a micro-concern to a significant and growing SME whilst maintaining its status as one of the most highly regarded producers in the English wine sector. Last year Ridgeview were the first English winery to be awarded the coveted "International Winemaker of the Year" trophy at the prestigious International Wine and Spirits Competition (IWSC) and more recently Ridgeview were crowned one of the best vineyards in the world, when it was placed number 36 at the announcement ceremony of the World’s Best Vineyards Top 50. In this time of surging interest in English Sparkling Wine, Tamara and her family believe Ridgeview is uniquely placed to achieve even greater significant success as a luxury sparkling wine brand in the UK market and in key export markets around the World. Ridgeview’s brand loyalty levels are the highest of any English Sparkling wine brand; their winery tours are booked-up months in advance, and they are having to ration stock among trade customers because demand is consistently exceeding supply. Following in her Father’s footsteps, Tamara feels strongly that the English wine industry must have a collective voice and be prepared to collaborate in order to reach its full potential and has taken on Board positions at WineGB and the Wine and Spirits Trade Association to help facilitate this. This is a wonderful in-depth interview where Tamara talks openly about Ridgeview's journey and explains that it all started from her parents ambition and drive to produce the finest English sparkling wines possible.
