Description

  • French oak
  • Red cherry & raspberry
  • Elegant mouthfeel
  • Unfiltered & unfined

"Splendidly ripe and fragrant with Black Doris plum, blueberry, floral and olive notes, it's concentrated and impressively weighted on the palate delivering outstanding fruit purity and persistency. Refined and structured at the same time with a superbly long textured finish. Certified organic. At its best: now to 2024" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Apr 2022

"A youthful, vibrant, almost exotic bouquet of wild red berries and roses. Scents of dark plum and dark cherry juice, some soft natural fruit savoury textures and fleshy core fruit scents. On the palate - delicious, ripe, fresh, fruity and real. Fruit tannins and acidity build texture on the palate with a core of red cherry, rapsberry and fresh fruit for contrast and flavour. A lovely example, new, fresh, natural and real. Best drinking from 2022 through end of summer 2026" Cameron Dougas, Master Sommelier, May 2022

Vivid red/purple colour. Immediate appeal on the nose, exhibiting primary Pinot fruit with fresh, dark forest berry aromas that lead to the youthful, firm and focussed palate. The wine has an intensely aromatic and pure flavour profile with a distinct “Macération Carbonique” fragrance from the partial whole bunch fermentation, which also adds a gentle CO2 lift, giving an elegant mouthfeel to this otherwise high energy Pinot. Very fine tannins and a long aftertaste.

Grapes sourced from Churton Vineyard (80%) and Wrekin Vineyard (20%). No herbicides, pesticides or systemic fungicides used. Only approved natural fertiliser applied. Both vineyards certified organic (BioGro).

Hand-picked on March 15th and 19th. “Wild” yeast fermented with mainly whole berries including approx. 26% whole bunches, resulting in a partial “Macération Carbonique”, that gives the wine a vibrant, floral lift. Then pressed and allowed to go through malo-lactic fermentation in old Burgundian barrels. Neither fined nor filtered and made without any adjustments or additives except for a minimal amount of sulphur at bottling to ensure the wine’s stability.

Food Pairing: This wine is beautiful with beef, lamb, venison, pork, sausages all from the BBQ, vegetarian dishes, cheese and charcuterie, generally great with Summer food!
