Two newbies are joining one of England's best established sparkling wines on board the Queen's barge, The Royal Chartwell, leading the 1000-strong flotilla on Sunday 3 June.

Alongside Nyetimber's Classic Cuvée 2007 will be Stopham Pinot Blanc 2010 from former racing driver Simon Woodhead (vineyard pictured here), and Albury Vineyard Silent Pool Rosé 2011.

You may have heard of Stopham Vineyard – Simon's Pinot Gris has been creating quite a stir, even featuring as Jancis Robinson MW's Wine of the Week. Albury Vineyard might be a new name though – and for good reason - this is its first vintage to be released!
