Biddenden Vineyard is Kent's oldest commercial vineyard, having been established by the Barnes family in 1969. The vineyards are set in 22 acres on a gentle south facing slope in a shallow sheltered valley, close to the Wealden village of Biddenden. Our visit includes Ploughman's Lunch, vineyard walk, winery talk and tastings including a complimentary glass of wine.
Ten varieties of grapes are grown to produce White, Red, Rosé and Quality Sparkling wines. Traditional Kentish ciders have also been made at the vineyard for over 20 years together with farm pressed apple juices.
The vineyard is signposted from the A262 Sissinghurst to Tenterden road. Directions can be found at www.biddendenvineyards.com/contact-us.shtml
