Tasting note
Fresh English white made from the delicate Bacchus grape, perfumed with elderflower and hedgerow flowers, tangy with lime, grapefruit, pineapple and gentle gooseberry.
Viticulture
The vines are planted on gentle slopes of sandstone, which aids drainage and provides good mineral pick up for our two sites, Foxhole and Pookchurch. The grapes are handpicked and the press wine, which would otherwise go to waste, is re-distilled to produce Gin and Vermouth.
Vinification
The hand-picked Bacchus was whole-bunch pressed and cool-fermented in stainless steel for approximately 14 days, ensuring the retention of the primary fruit aromas. The resultant wine is clean, fresh and lively.
Food Match
Perfectly compliments white fish and hard cheese such as cheddar.
