Balfour WineryQuality Assessed
"Taste some excellent English wine, produced in beautiful surroundings"
Overview
The first vineyard at Balfour Winery was planted in 2002, but already it’s helped put English wine on the wine map. A visit to the estate, set in beautiful Kent countryside, is a real must for wine buffs. Take tours around the vines, walk through the orchards and woodlands, and of course, spend a little time tasting the wine.

About the area
Kent is home to the White Cliffs of Dover, an English icon that marks the point where the Kent Downs AONB stretches from the Surrey Hills down to the sea. Visitors can explore historic parklands, including Knole Park and Sir Winston Churchill’s former home at Chartwell, or beautiful nature reserves, such as the coppiced woodlands of Denge Wood and Earley Wood and the ancient fine chalk woodland of Yockletts Bank.
