"Owner and winemaker Will Davenport is probably one of the most skillful and pioneering winemakers operating in England today. Davenport is definitely an estate to watch with interest when it comes to innovation in English wines."
write-up in Winefinders English wine catalogue.

Davenport Vineyards is slowly becoming one of the more established producers in the UK as several new plantings come on-stream over recent years. Their original vineyard was planted in 1991 in Kent, and they now have 12 acres of vines, all managed organically under UK Soil Association Certification since 2000. The winery in Sussex is one of the best equipped in England, and since 1995 Davenport Vineyards have developed a reputation based on the quality and individuality of their English wines.
