our story
ABOUT BRACKENTIDE
Brackentide was founded by Tiffany Vivienne, Editor and Founder of The Kent Review, an independent publication created to celebrate the people, places, food, drink and independent businesses that make Kent special.
After years spent discovering Kent’s vineyards, restaurants and producers through the magazine, Brackentide grew from a desire to create something of our own, a wine label that felt unmistakably connected to Kent, but with a modern identity that could travel far beyond it.
The name Brackentide brings together the two landscapes that inspired us: bracken for the countryside and tide for the coast. From rolling vineyards and rural pubs to long lunches by the sea, it represents the Kent we know and love.
OUR APPROACH
We’re not interested in creating dozens of wines.
Brackentide is a small, boutique label built around considered, limited releases, working with English-grown grapes and choosing wines that we genuinely want to drink ourselves.
Our story begins with Brackentide Bacchus 2025 — fresh, aromatic and distinctly English, with fragrant elderflower and a beautifully crisp finish.
Next comes Brackentide Pinot Gris 2026, continuing our approach of building the collection slowly, one wine at a time.
OUR MISSION
Our mission is simple: to make beautiful English wine feel exciting, approachable and relevant to the way people actually live.
A bottle for the table. For weekends away. For dinner with friends. For summer evenings by the sea and Sunday afternoons in the countryside.
No pretence. No enormous range. Just beautifully presented, carefully selected English wines with a strong sense of place.
Small releases. English-grown. Born in Kent.
