Kent's original vineyard producing award-winning wines, ciders & juices.
About us
Biddenden Vineyards, Kent’s original commercial vineyard, prides itself on being a family run vineyard with the second and third generation of the Barnes family managing the estate. Originally home to a 40 acre apple orchard, the Barnes family started to consider diversifying the farm in the late 1960s. After listing to a radio feature on English vineyards being replanted, Mrs. Barnes was inspired to turn to viticulture. In 1969, one third of an acre of vines was planted and Biddenden Vineyards was born. Today the single estate vineyard spans 23 acres of gentle south facing slopes situated in a sheltered valley, just outside the picturesque Wealden village of Biddenden. 11 different grape varieties are grown here to produce its array of award winning White, Rosé, Red and Sparkling English wines. The knowledge which the family has built up through experience over the years can be seen in the quality and consistency of the wines produced year on year. Biddenden also produces an array of award-winner ciders and juices. Crafted using the Barnes’ family recipe, which has been perfected over the last 40 years, all Biddenden’s ciders are made from the juice of carefully selected culinary and dessert apples. This gives its cider a more wine like style than those found in the West Country produced from bittersweet apples. Biddenden’s much loved, classic, farm-pressed apple and pear juices are naturally full of sweetness and with no added sugar. Working closely with local farmers Biddenden ensures all its apples and pears are sourced right from the Garden of England. Biddenden Vineyards is open to the public throughout the year, with free admission and tastings. For those just passing, there is a self-guided tour route around the vines for you to take a stroll at your leisure. For a more in-depth experience and to learn more about the history of the vineyard, the wine and the cider making process visitors can pre-book group and private guided tours.

We had an incredible time at the 2024 Vineyard & Winery Show yesterday! 🍇 This event is always a highlight for us, and this year didn’t disappoint. We met some fantastic people, had inspiring conversations about branding, tasted great new wines, and even sponsored a masterclass. It was also brilliant to see the Golden 50 logo in situ – designed by us to celebrate 50 incredible wines that have won gold awards this year. 🎉 A big thank you to everyone who joined us! P.S. If you tried Biddenden Vineyards Ltd’s Gewürztraminer, don’t miss the chance to grab a bottle exclusively via their newsletter this Friday... 👀 Cheers to another great year! 🍷 WineGB Wine Garden of England Kent Event Centre Vineyard Magazine
