A lovely citrus/pineapple character with a hint of white-pepper like spice. The lively fruit salad continues onto the palate which finishes with a very slight touch of sweetness & a slight grippiness, which is unusual in white wines, but a typical part of Feteasca Regala.

England is one of the coolest of the cool climate viticultural regions & also probably the wettest our summers are notoriously unpredictable & unreliable, testing resolve & optimism. There are few places in the world where wine growing is more marginal! This presents Albourne Estate with unique challenges each season. While they learn from the established wine-growing regions, developing locally relevant solutions & methods are essential in order to create a unique & sympathetic English style. They have deliberately restricted their plantings to just over 10 hectares (26 acres) of vines with the aim of capturing the essence of variety, vintage & vineyard, which requires an enlightened approach & meticulous attention to detail at every step of the process the small scale of their business allows them to be fastidious & meticulous with attention to detail.
The Bacchus is a bit special as it is crafted from a blend of early & late pick grapes in order to create greater interest & balance within the wine & at least 3 separate ferments are run, using 3 different yeast strains to best release the varietal aromas. Grapes are whole bunch pressed under inert conditions & then slowly & gently fermented in stainless steel tanks in order to preserve the aroma profile with just enough residual sugar retained to give just a hint of softness. ...
