Benchy View White - Reichensteiner - Bacchus, Dorset, England
White Wine
The Somerset Wine Co
A lovely local find - the vineyard being located just 5 miles away at Sandford Orcas just over the Somerset border into Dorset.
A blend of the German grape varieties Reichensteiner (2/3) and Bacchus (1/3) this is dry, zesty, lively white wine with good richness on palate of baked lemons and that classic hint of English hedgerow - hawthorn, a hint of elderflower with good acidity on the finish. 2018 was a great vintage for English wines as we had so much sunshine, ideal conditions for full ripening. Perfect with seafood and summer salads, like an English Picpoul!
Why not try something new!
