Davenport Vineyards is rapidly becoming a leader in the English wine scene. The property consists of 12 acres of vines, all managed organically under UK Soil Association Certification.

The Vineyards produce modern organic products, and see the organic production methods as a science. Davenport's organically grown grapes are different because They have not been subjected to synthetic chemical fungicide sprays, they have not been subjected to any insecticides at all, the vineyard soil is not treated with weed killers, and the soil fertility is not maintained by the addition of chemical fertiliser compounds. The removals of these factors contribute towards a healthier planet, and a fantastically clean and well-produced wine.

With an on site shop and an array of superb wines, this Vineyard boasts numerous awards and is well worth considering.
