Wimbushes Vineyard St Albans 2022 Solaris
Regular price £21.00The best vintage of Wimbushes so far... I know we said that last year, but this is even better! Very limited stock, so order while you can (but please don't be greedy). We are limiting purchases to one case of 6 per household.
This is as local as it get for wine folks! Wimbushes Solaris 2022 is ripe, tropical, clean, dry and crisp with green apple and ripe pear aromas and flavours. It has a lingering, minerally finish. We're very proud to be selling this very special wine.

Wimbushes Vineyard St Albans
Andy and Karina Harrison decided to plant an acre of vines on their beautiful Chiswell Green property about 10 years ago, as a hobby. In 2018 they appointed Suffolk winemaker (and ex-surgeon) Michael Rhodes to turn their Solaris and Rondo grapes into wine. In recent years, due to careful vineyard management by David Savage and the vines maturing healthily, the fruit and their talented winemaker, they have produced some seriously good English wine. These wines are produced in very small quantities, so we do tend to limit the amount of bottles purchased by any one household.
Bolney Estate Pinot Gris 2020
Regular price £19.95A brilliant example of Pinot Gris from a top English winemaker. Beats some of the best French or Italian examples!
A dry white with fragrant aromas of citrus, apple, grapefruit, and pear, which follows through onto the palate, with a wonderful richness and slightly honeyed character. It has a crisp, fresh acidity with a hint of white pepper spice accompanied by a creamy freshness and long, velvety finish
