Description
This soft and aromatic white wine from Knightor in Cornwall could be likened to a wine from Alsace. A small amount of the Bacchus crop was pressed and fermented into old French oak barrels with the intention of blending with the tank fermented dry Bacchus. However, these three barrels naturally stopped fermenting, leaving behind considerable residual sugar and they have been left for a further 6 months.
The aromas are a little more reserved and grown up, peach, elderflower and delicate vanilla come to the for. The palate is surprisingly rich for an English wine, showing honeyed oak, elderflower pressed and delicate apple. The finish is sweet and long. Perfect with cheeses and fruity desserts.
