WINE REVIEW

Before I get started on this review, I must say that this is a bold, divisive wine that is sure to split opinion. With that said, I love it.

The nose is a glorious adventure of the unusual. There are aromas of banana peel, black tea, bubblegum and dried herbs, with white pepper.

The palate on the Litmus Orange is equally compelling, with a fusion of grassy aromatics and grilled tropical fruits.

The finish is long and drawn-out, with interesting notes of white pepper, grape skin tannin and an unusual union of tropical gummy sweets and funky bruised fruit notes. A hugely distinctive and compelling wine.

Buy from Grape Britannia (2019) - £14.99
