BEHIND THE BOTTLE
Alastair and Mary chose expressive Pinot Noir fruit from Down Field vineyard for this pale gold, aromatic wine filled with flavours of juicy apricot and fresh English raspberries. Lightly pressed and aged in older oak for texture and weight, the wine has attractive notes of honey and fresh, balanced acidity.
ABOUT THE 2022 VINTAGE
A budburst date of 28th March meant that we started the season slightly earlier than usual. Warm and dry conditions from May through until veraison in August meant that the vines were in very good condition nutritionally with their mature root systems ensuring they had a steady supply of water. Rainfall from mid-August ended the dry conditions and gave the vines a top-up before the harvest period commenced in mid-September, finishing in early October.
