About The Wine

Tasting Notes

Culver Hill

A dry white blend made from Bacchus, Ortega and Pinot Blanc, the Culver Hill is our estate blend and brings out the best elements of all three varieties. The Ortega makes up 50% of the blend, bringing structure and richness to the mid palate, the Pinot Blanc adds bright citrus notes and the Bacchus grape, adds depth and complexity. On the nose are aromas of Braeburn apple, honeysuckle and nectarine that follow through on the palate with subtle minerality, a well balanced acidity and a clean finish.

Bacchus

Bacchus has a beautifully aromatic nose with heady notes of elderflower, fresh cut grass, lime leaf and passionfruit. The palate has vibrant, ripe citrus flavours with a touch of gooseberry on the finish. Brilliantly balanced, zippy acidity and terrific length.

Pinot Rosé

A delicate, beautifully crafted wine, which displays an attractive pale salmon colour. The nose delivers alluring aromas of rhubarb, cranberry and raspberry, which follow through nicely onto the palate, which is clean, precise and devilishly moreish.  
 

Pinot Précoce

The wonderfully ripe 2022 vintage has resulted in a rich red made from Pinot Précoce & Pinot Noir grapes. Pinot Précoce is an early ripening clone of Pinot Noir which is well suited to the English climate with small berries & bunches, providing concentrated flavour & aromas & the Pinot Noir providing finesse & elegance to the wine. Smoky mulberries & black cherries on the nose with an explosion of creamy dark fruits on the palate. Very long & moreish wine which has good structure & depth. Toasted vanilla oak flavours linger on the palate. 

Cotswold Classic

Our quintessentially Cotswolds sparkling wine has fresh aromas of ripe red apple and notes of white nectarine. The developing toasted aromas subtly hinting at the 18 months lees aging. The palate is delicate with great fruit precision showing distinctive white stone fruit and ripe apple with a fine mousse. This is all effortlessly balanced with the sugars and acidity, harmoniously leaving the flavours to linger on the palate. An excellent crowd pleaser for toasting any occasion.

Reserve Cuvée

This wine has inviting aromas of honeysuckle and apple pie with hints of almonds.The palate has vibrant well structured flavour of ripe citrus fruits & extended lees aging shows the depth of autolytic flavours- nutty brioche and complex orchard fruits. A well balanced, generoue, flavourful finish makes this an elegant & extremelt moreish wine.
