Biddenden Gamay Noir 2018
Intense red cherry and wild raspberry flavours, with a lick of black berry fruits and a reassuring savoury depth.
Chartham Pinot Gris 2018
Lots of crunchy green fruit and zestiness upfront, but with the delightful ripeness and summer sunshine of the 2018 vintage showing through
Litmus Orange Bacchus 2016
A hugely distinctive and compelling wine with complex aromas of tropical fruit, grass and herbs.
Essex Bacchus picked today. Destined for the follow-up to ‘I Wanna Be Adored’. Looking and tasting great. Just need to turn it into wine now, and come up with a suitable name.
