High Weald

High Weald Winery produces traditional English wines from their family vineyard in the heart of the Kent Weald, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The estate combines a passion for winemaking with deep appreciation for the stunning landscape that surrounds it.

The Weald's distinctive geology – ancient clay and sandstone soils – creates growing conditions quite different from the chalk downlands that dominate much of the English wine industry. This terroir imparts particular character to the wines, with mineral notes and texture that reflect the unique soils. The sheltered valleys of the Weald also provide protection from harsh weather while maintaining good sun exposure.

As a family-run operation, High Weald takes a personal approach to every aspect of wine production. The vineyard is managed with care and attention, allowing the vines to produce grapes of optimal quality. Winemaking follows traditional methods, respecting the fruit and allowing the character of each vintage to express itself.

The range includes still wines from varieties suited to the English climate, offering accessible introduction to the flavours of Wealden wine. Each wine reflects the family's commitment to quality and their connection to this beautiful corner of Kent.

Visitors are welcomed by appointment for tours and tastings, experiencing English wine in its most intimate and authentic setting. The personal touch extends throughout the visit – this is not a commercial operation but a genuine family passion shared with those who take the time to discover it. High Weald Winery represents the heart of English wine: small-scale, quality-focused, and deeply rooted in place.
