Vineyard of Winklestone Vineyard

Winklestone Vineyard is a small family estate in Ashdown Forest that places organic farming and minimal intervention at the heart of its approach. Its aim is to produce fresh, pure wines that reflect the local landscape while supporting nature and the village community.

The first harvest took place in 2023. The Bacchus is made entirely from the estate’s own organically grown grapes. Organic grapes from Forty Hall Vineyard are also used for the rosé. The young estate works in small volumes and combines its own fruit with carefully selected organic grapes from other English vineyards when a cuvée requires it.
