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.
Tenterhook
Made from a blend or equal parts Ortega and Siegerrebe, this is a deliciously fresh and complex wine that will continue developing in the bottle as it ages. On the nose is a bouquet of orange blossom, golden apple and honeyed notes that follow onto the palate with apricots, nectarines and fresh grapefruit. Beautifully balanced richness and acidity with a well structured, delicate creamy texture from the barrel fermentation.
Cotswold Classic
This year’s Cotswold Classic is a blend of Seyval Blanc, Pinot Blanc & Pinot Gris, but for the first time with the addition of 15% Chardonnay, As usual there is a bright refreshing acidity, beautiful fruit and as sence of fun, but this release is all grown up.
There is more concentration, more complexity & a perfect balance. The nose shows the most wonderful baked apple & brioche aromase with a touch of lemon peel. The palate is well-balanced with ripe apple pie flavours combined with citrus notes. a touch of salinity and a long, complex and satisfying finish.
