Fine English Wines
of
The East Anglian Wine Region

A variety of vines are cultivated in East Anglia to produce award-winning English Wines. The most widely grown vines are Müller Thurgau and Bacchus both of which produce a full flavoured fragrant fruity wines in this dry and sunny region. Other successful vines include Madeleine Angevine, Reichensteiner, Huxelrebe, Schonburger, Pinot Blanc and Seyval, all of which help to make many of our wines critically acclaimed on a national and international level.
Of the new varieties, Dornfelder, Ortega, Acolon and Rondo are proving very successful, while the oldest vine of all, Pinot Noir, continues to thrive in East Anglia.

We export wine to France, Germany, Japan and other countries. Wine writer Oz Clarke said of East Anglia in Webster's Wine Guide: "This is one area which has definitely begun to develop a regional style".

As in other wine growing countries vines behave differently on different soils and are also affected by pruning, trellising techniques and microclimate. No two wines are exactly alike, but the majority of wines are skilfully blended to add complexity to the final appreciation. As our climate warms, red wines in this area are showing great promise. East Anglian wines do well in national and international competitions.
Many vineyards that are open to visitors will offer you free tasting.

Many of our wines are dry but we also produce some enjoyable medium whites, some delicious rose's and even some promising reds. Why not try them for yourselves?

Our vineyards exhibit regularly at agricultural and craft shows throughout East Anglia where you will have a further opportunity to taste and buy our produce.

At the Suffolk Show we have a marquee where you can compare the wines of several vineyards. Look out for the East Anglian Winegrower at your local show.
