WineGB has announced the publication of its regenerative viticulture guide, developed in partnership with the Regenerative Viticulture Foundation (RVF). 

The trade association said the release comes in response to growing interest in regenerative viticulture among its membership. 

The guide, which is available exclusively to members of the association, will sit within the broader WineGB Knowledge Hub, in partnership with NFU Mutual. 

There, it will provide a central point of support and reference for growers and producers looking to adopt the new approach. 

The toolkit includes guidance on the use of cover crops, animal integration, supporting and encouraging biodiversity and the integration of agroforestry. 

Members will also be able to access the One Block Challenge, launched by the RVF, in which each participant dedicates one block of vines to biodiversity trials. 

Becky Sykes, programme director at The Regenerative Viticulture Foundation, said: “We are thrilled to see WineGB really take up the mantle for regenerative viticulture and embrace its growth. 

“It is vital for growers to have access to the correct resources and support, and we are sure this new guide will only increase interest among the UK wine producing community.” 

Emma Rix, sustainability manager at WineGB, added: “Whether you’re an experienced producer with established regen practices or a new grower looking to dip your toe into this vast sea, WineGB is here to support all our members.  

“Regenerative viticulture is so vital for healthy, sustainable vineyards and we are incredibly encouraged by this growth in interest from members”.
