The Rother Wine Triangle is the first official trail for Sussex Winelands. Having launched during English Wine Week 2025, it’s set to elevate Sussex as a must-visit destination for wine lovers.
Low-lying, the Rother Valley is a warm microclimate that receives some of the highest hours of sunshine than anywhere else in the UK. Along with its unique terroir of alluvial soils and sand, silt and clay and sandstone ridges, the region produces award-winning wines of the classic sparkling method, as well as varieties including Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Alsatian Pinot clones.
Designed to enhance wine tourism in the region, the pilot includes new wayfinding signage and orientation points that connect seven award-winning vineyards that fall between the triangular points made geographically between Rye, Hastings and Flimwell, in the Rother Valley region of East Sussex.
Participating vineyards include Carr Taylor Vineyard, Charles Palmer Vineyard, Mountfield Winery, Oastbrook, Oxney Organic Estate, Sedlescombe Organic Vineyard and Tillingham.
Visitors can undertake the trail by foot or on wheels, enjoying what each vineyard has to offer, whether it be cellar-door tastings, wine tours, dining and events, all whilst enjoying the beautiful High Weald countryside.
The majority of the vineyards offer accommodation on site, so people can enjoy the trail over a number of days, whilst also exploring 1066 Country and other visitor attractions the area has to offer. Alternatively, visitors can pick and choose sections of the trail, to complete within a desired timeframe.
