The prestigious UK Winemaker of the Year Award went to New Hall in 2013, 2015 and 2016 and their highly acclaimed and award-winning wines showcase English Wine at its best. Grapes are hand harvested from vineyards of London clay soils with chalk underlay at optimum ripeness. Each of the eight Bacchus plantings were vinified separately with cool, steady fermentation in stainless steel. 1.5% of the blend was barrel-fermented in third fill French oak, followed by two months’ ageing in barrel, adding texture to the
mouthfeel.
The resulting wine displays intense aromas of fresh nettle, kiwi and pear. Rich and flavoursome, the palate displays complex layers of grapefruit, peach, lime and ripe passion fruit notes mingling with a refreshing minerality and herbaceous overtones of cut grass and nettle. Try with seafood or poultry dishes, goats cheese salads or asparagus.
According to parish records, the first vineyards were planted in Purleigh in the Middle Ages, where the vines flourished and supplied The Crown. Fast forward to 1969 and the vineyards at New Hall in Purleigh, Essex were planted by the Greenwood family, making it one of the oldest in the UK and one of the warmest and sunniest spots in the country. Today, New Hall Vineyards has 40 hectares under vine and one of the largest plantings of Bacchus in the UK.
