This beautiful Vineyard is located on a 1200 acre farm in Suffolk on an ancient estate once occupied by Romans and recorded in Doomsday.  Wyken Vineyards are a local producer of some of the finest wines around.  Wyken Bacchus is just one of those fine local produce wines which deserves its title as winning the 'English Wine of the Year' and the 'East Anglia Wine of the Year' awards.


Wyken Vineyards also grow malting barley on their sandy loom in Suffolk and have recently begun producing their own fine ale: 'Good Dog Ale' described as 'Make You Want to Sit and Stay.  A low fizz ale that is delicious with food'.  So whether you have a taste for fine wines or ale, I'd highly recommend giving Wyken's a try.
