WINE REVIEW
Denbies, based in Dorking, Surrey has a huge 265 acres of land under vine. The wines are made on site in conjunction with the Litmus Wines team.
This month I’ve selected two wines that are exclusive to Waitrose for our Supermarket picks. This is a lovely fresh white wine made from Seyval Blanc.
Refreshing citrus zest aromas, floral notes and springtime meadow grass; light and elegantly English. The palate delivers a lot for an entry-level English white, beginning with a fresh embrace of pithy lemon.
A full and fleshy mid-taste that takes a tropical twist with hints of pineapple and papaya, whilst the zing of grapefruit and lime lingers with a slightly peppery finish.
