Our 2013 Bacchus is a white wine with an off-dry style. It has been awarded Protected Designation of Origin status and is made from the Bacchus grape blended with a small amount Reichensteiner. A subtle lemon colour in appearance, it is refined and light-bodied in character. Floral aromas of elderflower and apple blossom are followed by delicate citrus on the palate. Our 2013 Rose, awarded the prestigious Protected Designation of Origin status, is made from red Rondo and white Reichensteiner grapes. A deep pink and raspberry blush in appearance, it is both fresh and dry in character with an attractive residual sweetness. Aromas and flavours of red summer fruits are followed by a delicate hint of butterscotch on the palate. Rondo, the main component, is a dark ruby red grape. It is an early ripening and high yielding variety which makes an excellent rose with good body and a defined character. A delicious wine for summer drinking and best enjoyed lightly chilled. We would recommend to drink within three years of vintage
