# The Sussex Wine Company

> The independent guide to the vineyards and sparkling wines of Sussex, England's protected wine region. Discover producers, book curated vineyard tours, and follow the Sussex Wine Awards.

The Sussex Wine Company is an independent directory and events brand covering the vineyards of East and West Sussex: what they make, the awards they have won, and where to visit. We run curated, scheduled wine tours and are building the Sussex Wine Awards. Sussex holds a Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) for its wine, and is best known for traditional-method sparkling wine.
