Chapel Down Bacchus 2023 (6 Bottles) Tenterden, Kent, England
UK MAINLAND DELIVERY INCLUDED
Our best-selling English still white wine.
This fragrant wine is crisp and refreshing, with a nose full of elderflower, grapefruit and melon notes. An unbeatable choice for all occasions! 100% Bacchus grapes & 12% alcohol.
Originally from the German region of Pfalz, Bacchus was created in the 30s as a cross between Silvaner, Riesling and Müller-Thurgau. Under the UK climate, Bacchus has become a world class wine in its own right, developing distinct floral, citrus and grassy aromas that have led to frequent comparison with the highest quality Sauvignon Blancs.
Little Waddon Col Fondo Sparkling White 2022 (6 Bottles) Waddon, Dorset, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING AVAILABLE
Introducing our award-winning Little Waddon Vineyard Sparkling White Col Fondo 2022. Made in the Italian ancestral method, Col Fondo undergoes a second fermentation in the bottle, with the lees (sediment) adding complexity and texture.
Crafted from hand-destemmed, foot-crushed Phoenix and Seyval Blanc grapes grown on our Jurassic Coast vineyard, this low-intervention wine showcases our unique terroir. Wild fermentation, malolactic fermentation, cold curing over winter, and bottle fermentation create delicate frizzante bubbles.
The wine offers aromas of honeysuckle, peach, and almond, balanced by fresh lime acidity and an elderflower finish. Winner of Silver at the 2023 WineGB West Competition.
