Six wines from across Sussex will be sold in Gatwick's duty free shops as part of a push to celebrate local produce.

Wines from the Ridgeview estate near Hassocks will be among the bottles available to buy at the airport.

The celebration of Sussex wine comes as part of a campaign to push the local produce both at home and abroad.

Mardi Roberts, of Ridgeview, said: “Gatwick serves as Sussex's gateway to the world.

“Their unwavering support for Sussex wine tourism and advocacy for our visitor economy have been invaluable.

“We are delighted that Ridgeview sparkling wine will now accompany holidaymakers on their celebratory journeys, allowing them to share the exceptional quality of our Sussex produce.”

Four wines from the Ridgeview estate will be sold in World Duty Free stores at Gatwick as part of a partnership to benefit the Sussex economy.

A spokesman for the airport said it was “delighted to join this exciting campaign to support the local economy”.

Ridgeview’s sparkling wines are rated among some of the best in the UK and globally.
