Back Story & Wine Information
It is our vision to improve the lot of our employees by growing our business and thereby providing maximum job opportunities in a market that is desperate for support. We go a step further, we farm sustainably with no herbicides or pesticides, we till by hand, hugely labour intensive, but very satisfying, we prune, thin bunches and leaves all by hand and finally we harvest by hand. This additional employment we hope goes some way to improving the quality of life in our community and we know that if every community looked after their own, no-one would go wanting. This is our proposal, and consequently each bottle is a victory and represents a small change – for the better – in someone’s life.
Pairing
Seafood: Delicate white fish and light seafood like shellfish are excellent pairings due to the wine's brisk acidity.
Poultry: Chicken dishes, from simple preparations to something like chicken schnitzel, complement the wine's complex flavors.
Pasta and vegetables: Try it with pasta dishes or spring vegetable sides, as its herbaceous notes harmonize well with ingredients like asparagus, peas, or zucchini.
Cheese: It pairs well with soft cheeses and goat cheese, which can balance the wine's crispness.
Spicy foods: The wine's refreshing acidity helps to cut through the heat of spiced dishes, such as mild curries or other exotic, Eastern-spiced foods.
