Yotes Court ‘On the Nod’ Bacchus 2021 (6 Bottles) Maidstone, Kent, England
£102.00
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
This wine is fresh and aromatic, it has aromas of gooseberry, cassis bud and green pineapple on the nose, followed by a zesty palate of pithy pink grapefruit. A classic English Bacchus.
Bacchus grape is a cross between Müller-Thurgau and Silvaner-Riesling and tastes quite like a Sauvignon Blanc.
A race won ‘on the nod’ is thrilling to watch and is so close it is often decided by a photo of the finish. A perfect name for our Bacchus with its crisps, citrus finish. This Bacchus is particularly suited to spring vegetables like asparagus, peas and broad beans, goats cheese, salads without heavy dressings, shellfish and poached or grilled salmon.
About Yotes Court Vineyard
Yotes Court Vineyard is a modern, sustainable winery nestled in the Garden of England, Kent. The vineyard is situated on a historic estate, with roots dating back to the 14th century. Master of Wine Stephen Skelton identified the site as perfect for vines, with its south-sloping aspect, free-draining soil, and frost-free conditions.
The vineyard was planted in 2016 with Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier grapes, which were initially used to produce sparkling wines for Chapel Down. In 2018, the owner, Susannah Ricci, expanded the vineyard, planting additional acres with Bacchus, Pinot Blanc, Pinot Gris, and Divico grapes.
Yotes Court is committed to sustainability, achieving accreditation as a Sustainable Producer under the Sustainable Wines of Great Britain scheme. The vineyard uses science and technology to minimise its environmental impact, increasing biodiversity and protecting soil fertility.
The winery partners with Defined Wine, a respected winery that shares its sustainable vision. Yotes Court produces single-vintage, single-varietal wines that reflect the unique characteristics of each grape variety. With a focus on quality and sustainability, Yotes Court is producing exceptional wines that showcase the best of English winemaking.

Albourne Estate Bacchus 2022 (6 Bottles) Albourne, West Sussex, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
English-grown Bacchus grapes produce aromatic, fresh and crisp wines similar in style to Sauvignon Blanc but with their own distinctive aroma profile.
As is typical of the varietal, our 2022 Bacchus is pale, with a crisp light mouth feel and recogniseable aromatic complexity.
The diversity of aromas can range from herbaceous (tomato leaf, basil, sage, nettle, asparagus, grassy) to citrus (lime zest, lemon, grapefruit) to tropical fruit (medlar, mango, passionfruit) to floral (elderflower, honeysuckle) with the intensity ranging from punchy and intense to more subtle and elegant.
Our style of Bacchus aims for intriguing aromatic complexity and subtle elegance which we believe the 2022 delivers in abundance.
More about the Bacchus grape
The variety originated in Germany in the 1930’s as a cross between Muller-Thurgau and Silvaner x Riesling which has helped contribute to its complex nature. In order to enhance this complexity and build ‘terroir-character’ into our wines we blend multiple unique batches picked on different dates, split into different press fractions and fermented with different yeasts.
Food Match Suggestions: The crisp acidity and freshness makes Bacchus perfect as an appetising aperitif wine. It also pairs beautifully with English asparagus or goats cheese as well as seafood such as dressed shellfish or stronger flavoured salads such as Caesar or rocket.
