Wine Sponsor

Kent’s original vineyard, Biddenden has been owned and managed by the Barnes family since 1969 and is now run by the 2nd and 3rd generation, with the 4th generation joining the family in 2025.

Originally home to a 40-acre apple orchard, the Barnes family started to consider diversifying the farm in the late 1960s as apple prices began to decline. After listening to a feature on BBC Woman’s Hour about English vineyards, Joyce Barnes was inspired to turn to viticulture. In 1969, one third of an acre of vines was planted and Biddenden Vineyards was born.

Today our single estate vineyard spans 25 acres of gentle south facing slopes situated in a sheltered valley, just outside the picturesque Wealden village of Biddenden. 12 different grape varieties are grown here to produce our array of award-winning White, Rosé, Red and Sparkling English wines. From our first wine, which was bottled in 1972, production has now grown to around 80,000 bottles per year. 

Biddenden offers something for everyone, with a range of innovative, award-winning wines, showcasing 57 years of wine making expertise.
