Castle Brook Classic Cuvee 2016

Deliciously delicate, crisp palate with a hint of lemon blossom. Brioche and toasty yeast notes add complexity to the finish.

The vineyard lies on a steep south facing slope in the Wye Valley, Herefordshire. With plenty of warm westerly air but in the rain shadow of the Black Mountains, the area is renowned for its fruit and vegetable production. The soil is mineral rich, being an old meander of the river Wye.

Our grapes are hand harvested and gently crushed, using only the best juice and malolactic fermentation. The wine is then bottled in the traditional method.

The wine has been given a generous four plus years of resting on its lees in secondary fermentation, before disgorging and further resting for four plus months.
