About Hanwell Wine Estate
The story of Hanwell Wine Estate began in the late 1960s when Tony and Veronica discovered a neglected vine in an old greenhouse at their new home in West Bridgford, South Nottinghamshire. Fascinated by its potential, they delved into viticulture through books and magazines, immersing themselves in a world far less accessible than it is today.
In 1975, they planted their first vineyard, later relocating it to establish Eglantine Vineyard, nestled between Nottingham and Loughborough. Despite scepticism about the region being too far north for grape ripening, their ingenuity prevailed. In the 1990s, they earned an award for innovation by developing a manual wooden “giro-pallet” to riddle champagne bottles in bulk. By the early 2000s, they made history by producing England’s first Ice Wine, North Star, which has gained international acclaim and was recently served at the King’s Coronation banquet at the Ritz Piccadilly, London.
In the 1980s, Tony and Veronica embarked on a quest to test and preserve diverse grape varieties. Over decades, they trialled 250 varieties for their resilience, quality, and ability to thrive in Nottinghamshire. Select varieties were later sent to the UK National Collection, continuing their legacy of innovation.Today, trials persist across Eglantine Vineyard and Hanwell Wine Estate, where 15 PIWI varieties, bred for disease resistance, are being closely monitored. The family’s pioneering spirit and passion for English winemaking remain at the heart of their work, shaping the future of viticulture.

Albourne Estate Red Pinot Noir 2019 (6 Bottles) Albourne, West Sussex, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
This is our second vintage of Red Pinot Noir and displays a deeper, richer ruby colour and a more complex nose than our 2018 version. This is partly due to the vintage and partly due to increased use of the ‘saignee’ method during winemaking. The nose offers aromas of rich dark berries including black cherries backed by notes of cigarbox, black olives and dark chocolate. On the palate it delivers excellent body for a cool climate Pinot Noir with mature soft tannins, a balanced mouthfeel and a harmonious lingering finish. All of this wine has spent 12 months in a mix of new and old French oak barrels before being bottled by hand, unfined and unfiltered, under cork to allow gentle ageing.
Highly enjoyable with charcuteries cheese and nuts as an aperitif and great with a casserole or barbecued meats and vegetables.

Character: Light, Fruit-forward
Aromas: Cherry, Wild Strawberry, Spice
Flavours: Red Fruits, Gentle Oak
Style: A light and summery English Red.
Food Pairing: Pair with lamb, game, or enjoy on its own.
A pale red Pinot Noir, the colour is deceptive, not revealing the powerful red fruits hidden within. Full of wild red fruit characters on the nose, the palate is soft, with intense red cherry and gentle spice from the time spent on oak. The perfect red for summer, ideal with a BBQ.
Winemaker's Notes: Just the ripest Pinot Noir was used for this light red. The grapes were crushed and fermented partly in tank and partly in barrel. Throughout the ferment regular pump overs were conducted to extract a little more colour and weight. The oaked proportion of the blend then spent a further 12 months in oak before being bottled.
