Oxney Estate

NATURALLY BETTER WINES
There’s an old saying that great wines are made in the vineyard. We couldn’t agree more – and we see organic methods as the best way to produce the quality and purity of fruit required for those wines. Our 35 acres of vines produce around 20% of all organic grapes grown in the UK and we use them to make an increasingly celebrated range of still and sparkling wines. We believe that the future of English wine is organic.

The proof is in the bottle.

Vineyard, Winery and Tasting Tour
For the Winter Season do join us here at the vineyard near Rye on Saturdays at 11am on specific dates (check dates by clicking ‘book now’) for an enlightening introduction to the English organic wine revolution. Over 90 minutes, you’ll take a peek at the vineyard (pending weather) and our winery while we’ll talk you through the challenges and rewards of cool-climate grape-growing as well as the organic methods and innovations we use to overcome them. We then move on to a guided tasting (in our cosy snug tasting room at the top of the winery) of four of our best loved wines under the expert guidance of a friendly, knowledgeable member of our team.

We kick start the Summer Season with our first tour, tasting & picnics on Saturday May 4th, 2024 at 11am and finish the season on October 26th.  The tour & tasting takes 90 minutes and our very knowledgeable tour member will take you round the vineyard and winery and finish with a guided tasting of four wines. The tastings are normally outside underneath our tipi roofed tasting terrace next to our gorgeous flower meadow.  After the tasting you can opt to have a picnic lunch with local cheeses and charcuterie from the farm.

The 2024 Summer season runs May 4th through October 26th. Tickets are available to book.

Winter tour & tastings (November-April): £30 per person inclusive of charcuterie tasting platter.

Summer tours & tastings (May-October): £30 per person. Summer picnic lunch £25 per person.

We’re located in one of South East England’s most scenic spots, at the heart of the High Weald AONB. So you’ll be surrounded by natural splendour – but also all the comforts and conveniences of our spacious, stylishly converted accommodations.

Depending on group size, you can stay in the vineyard accommodation – the two shepherd’s huts or the Vineyard house – or a short drive away at The Oxney Barns in Stone Cum Ebony.

If you stay in the huts we have included a vineyard tour and picnic and if you’re opting to stay in our smaller barns (Little and Old) we have also included a vineyard tour. For bigger groups staying in the Vineyard House and the Oxney Barns there is an option to book a tour or a picnic (or you can decide later – we are easy)!
