Delicious Riesling, with an effortless level of drinkability. Lifted notes of lemongrass, ginger, lemon, lime. white peach and savoury spice. Medium bodied and incredibly complex for a wine at this price. Citrus and stone fruits, ginger, mint, preserved citrus, honeysuckle, melon and textural richness. The sweetness perfectly judged and balanced by tangy minerality. Waters Wine Co

 

This employs fruit from the northwest and the Derwent and Coal River valleys. It is wild fermented using skins, barrels and stainless steel before ageing on lees. Straw-green hue, and a very powerful and complex wine from the first to last sip. It’s designed to shock. Not fined; 6768 bottles made. 92 Points, Halliday Wine Companion

 

Fruit from vineyards in the North West, Derwent and Coal River Valleys, picked between 11.4 and 12.2 baume. Skin ferment makes up 10% of the blend with the remainder soaked on skins for 12 to 24 hours. Slowly fermented in stainless steel and barrels with natural yeast. Stopped when sugars and acids found balance and matured on lees. Bottled unfined and filtered. Hughes & Hughes
