Aromas: Grapefruit, Grass, Tropical Fruit
Flavours: Citrus, Tropical Fruit
Style: For lovers of Orange Wine
Food Pairing: Perfect with lightly spiced cuisines and white meats.

The skin fermented method applied to such aromatic varietals results in a wine with super powerful aromas of grapefruit, grass and tropical fruit. The palate is dry and crisp with soft tannins and a long citrussy finish. A very food friendly wine!

Winemaker’s Notes: Not your typical white wine, a wine for the lovers of ‘orange wines’. Small parcels of very ripe and rare (in England) Sauvignon Blanc and Muscat grapes were fermented on skins in the same way as you would a red wine for 7 days before being pressed. Only 500 bottles produced.

Wine: Skin Fermented Still White
Grape Variety: Sauvignon Blanc, Muscat
Body: Medium
Sweetness: Dry
Alcohol: 11.5%

Description

About Knightor Winery

A working winery and exclusive wedding venue set amongst four acres above St Austell Bay.

​Our approach is to allow the grapes to express themselves often in short run, exclusive wines. Cool ferments and light touches of oak where it adds value, with careful blending or ageing to achieve depth and balance.

The climate and low yields allow us to produce lighter, fruitier, lower abv wines with good acidity that are refreshing as an aperitif and good with food. Minimal intervention means all of our wines are vegan friendly, low in sulphates and the sweetness comes from fruit, not sugar. ​
