Chartham Vineyard

Roz and Richard Goodenoughs have a simple mantra – no short cuts and see their cultivation of wines and winemaking as a journey of discovery. Their aim is to produce high quality fruit and top quality wines which reflect the distinctive terroir of our site within the Kentish Downs.

They are a family firm, growing their wines on their local farm and the grapes harvested by hand. They very much see themselves as custodians on the land and have a great respect for traditional vineyard practices, combined with the very latest approach to wine making, ensuring their wine is of high quality.

Furthermore, they are very anxious to adopt sustainable methods in both cultivation and processing that will reduce environmental impact and promote biodiversity.

Their wines have already won many awards, including the UKVA National Competition and the Independent English Wine Awards.

We are delighted to have their Chatham Bacchus 2018 - a delightfully refreshing and floral wine which will improve over the next 2 years.
