Tasting note

A distinctly English wine, bursting with elderflower and hedgerow aromas. This Bacchus and Pinot Gris blend shows real terroir: Bacchus brings floral notes and white fruit, while Pinot Gris adds the structure needed for fermentation in bottle.

Viticulture

2019 began well, with plenty of sunshine and the hottest Easter bank holiday on record. A warm, wet summer increased disease pressure during ripening, but careful vineyard work ensured quality fruit. Yields were good, with clean, healthy grapes showing excellent natural sugar and flavour concentration.

Vinification

A unique traditional-method sparkling wine from hand-picked Bacchus and Pinot Gris. Whole-bunch pressed, cool-fermented in stainless steel, then briefly rested on lees to preserve freshness and aromas. It aged a further 12 months on lees in bottle before disgorging.
