Wildshark Vineyards are a young estate nestled at the base of the North Downs in Kent. In 2022 they planted 60 acres of new vines on an area of ancient soils, composed predominantly of chalk. It is due to these Cretaceous soils that the vineyard takes its name, the land here 50 million years ago was the bed of a vast ocean where great numbers of sea creatures used to preside.
The land was also used historically as a Roman settlement, but now is home to rolling fields of vines. The philosophy of the estate is to work with a minimal intervention approach, encouraging a diverse ecosystem and farm sustainably, working towards re-wilding areas of the land and planting hedgerows and trees throughout the vineyards giving home to insects and fauna which naturally protect the vines. They are certified with sustainable wines of GB and strive to produce excellent quality wine.
