History & Geography
As the UK's oldest organic vineyard, Sedlescombe Organic, established in 1979, naturally has a rich heritage. The vineyard was established from winemaker Roy Cook's dream of self-sufficiency and continues with these conservationist principles today. Sedlescombe Organic produced the first organic English sparkling wine from the 1990 vintage, the first organic English red wine in 1994 and following their conversion to biodynamic methods, the first Demeter certified English wine in December 2010 - First Release. Since 2000, the focus has been on planting disease resistant vine varieties to minimize losses to mildew disease and to minimize the need to spray copper. We are located in 1066 Country near Hastings; just down the road from Bodiam Castle, situated on the B2244 (just off the A21) 1.5 miles north of Sedlescombe village, and 7 miles north of Hastings.
