The grapes are whole bunch pressed into a mix of stainless steel tanks and old Burgundy barrels for fermentation. The combination of tanks and barrels offers a depth and complexity that enhances aromas of elderflower, citrus, grapefruit, pineapple and white pepper.
We are excited to bring back the second edition of our GMF, an early release, champagne method sparkling wine. The 2020 vintage was the forever summer of Britain, adding to a long warm growing season with exceptional quality. Bottled under crown cap, we leave this opulent wine undisgorged, giving the benefit continued lees ageing in the bottle, adding to the texture and complexity. The wine spends a minimum of 6 months ageing on lees prior to bottling and secondary fermentation.
About Blackbook Vineyard
Nestled in the heart of London, Blackbook Vineyard is a pioneering urban winery that bridges the gap between city life and traditional winemaking. Founded in 2017 by winemaker Sergio Verrillo, Blackbook is located in a converted railway arch in Battersea, demonstrating that world-class wines can be crafted in unconventional settings.
Blackbook focuses on small-batch production, using sustainably sourced grapes from carefully selected English vineyards in Essex, Kent, and Oxfordshire. Their commitment to low-intervention winemaking emphasizes the pure expression of the fruit and the unique terroirs of these regions. Grapes are hand-harvested, fermented with wild yeasts, and handled minimally to create wines that are vibrant, modern, and characterful.
Specializing in Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, Blackbook Vineyard produces exceptional still and sparkling wines. Their “Clayhill Vineyard Chardonnay” is celebrated for its precision, with notes of citrus, green apple, and flinty minerality, while their “Painter of Light Pinot Noir” offers delicate red fruit flavors, soft tannins, and a hint of spice. These wines reflect Sergio’s vision of crafting elegant, terroir-driven wines with a distinctly English identity.
At Blackbook, visitors are invited into an intimate urban winery experience. Tours and tastings showcase the artistry of winemaking and the innovative spirit of crafting fine wine in the city. With its bold approach and dedication to quality, Blackbook Vineyard is redefining English wine and proving that great wines can emerge from even the most unexpected locations.
