Country: Romania

Region: Recas and Minis

ABV: 12.5%

Grapes: Pinot Grigio

As you walk through the rolling vineyards of the 700 hectare Cramele Recas estate, two things are inescapable. The first is the scale of the transformation that Englishman Philip Cox and his wife Elvira have managed to achieve, replanting 700 hectares of decrepit vineyards and replacing them with immaculately tended sites the equal of anywhere else in the world. The second is that if you didn't know where you were, you'd be convinced you were in Tuscany or any other "Classic" wine producing region. And, to a certain extent you are, Romania has a history of winemaking stretching back millennia and it was this potential that has driven this dynamic duo to dedicate their lives to driving forward Romanian winemaking to it's current state of rude health. A 20 million euro investment in the vineyards and brand new winery.

The purest water from their own borehole, fresh natural ingredients and a little OCD!

We could tell you that our friends, the 3 Brewers of St Albans, have created an ale that has a deep amber colour, a light hoppy aroma and a rich and rounded malty taste balanced by subtle hoppiness to give a supremely clean, smooth and refreshing taste, but there's no need really. Suffice to say that we think they've created a modern classic here and we're pretty confident that you'll agree - just don't tell the Brewers about the OCD comment, particularly not the big one....

Brewed using only British hops.
