HEBRON VINEYARD
Hebron Vineyard was planted by Jemma Vickers and Paul Rolt in 2010 who moved back to the UK after 9 exciting years converting an established vineyard into an award winning non intervention organic vineyard in Andalucia, Spain.
Establishing a vineyard using organic methods in West Wales presented various challenges. After many set-backs, including rabbit attack and over zealous grass growth, with determination and hard work they were delighted with Hebron Vineyard's first release in 2019, a rare Welsh red wine "1".
The sister wine of the 2018 vintage was a superlative sparkling white wine, "Silver Lining". This wine spent an extra year in the bottle, using the 'méthode traditionnelle'.
The superb unadulterated taste reflects the mineral rich terroir of the Preseli foothills and the west coast cool climate.
Their vineyards are non/zero intervention and organically maintained, using regenerative viticulture and agroforestry practices. Although this is not the easy option, they do not feel that the use of pesticide, herbicide, fungicide or indeed fertilizer is necessary to produce a quality grape -they want their grapes to taste of their vines' natural experience in the soils and climate of West Wales not of any additions made to them. They strive to work within and in harmony with the ecosystem rather than attempting to radically alter and control it.
All of the vines are maintained by hand from prune to training to harvest.
