High quality fruit combined with cold masceration deliver a wine with excellent purity.
Production
The cleanest fruit is cold macerated for 3 days prior to the fermentation which lasts about a week. The resulting wine then soaks on the skins for a further week before being transferred to a specialist room in order to go through a full malolactic fermentation prior to 8 months in second fill French oak barrels before bottling.

Vivino ratings
Tasting notes
Bursting with cherry fruit aromas this is pretty Pinot Noir. The palate is light yet supple, packed with juicy red fruits. Tannis are softened by time in oak and add gentle spice to this excellent Pinot.
Food match
Can hold up to lean red meat or drinks well with simple pizza and pasta.

Meet the producer
An English gem in Devon, Sharpham have been making wine for over 40 years and are recognised for producing some of England's most outstanding wines. A recent move from their original home on the Sharpham Estate across the river Dart to Sandridge Barton, just south of Stoke Gabriel, has seen the opening of a new state of the art winery. Spread across 450 acres, the site is one of England’s most picturesque vineyards.
The estate produces stylish, fruit-forward wines from the Madeleine Angevine and Bacchus grapes. Traditional and new world techniques are employed resulting in a range of distinctive and carefully balanced wines with intense fruit flavours and aromas.
