Lyme Bay Pinot Noir 2024

Vibrant red fruit – cherry, raspberry and mulberry – plus some savoury spice

Vibrant red fruit combines with vanilla oak, hints of herbs and spices and an earthy complexity. On the palate, red fruits dominate with cherry, raspberry, and redcurrant with just a hint of mulberry. A touch of savoury spice and earthy mushroom complexity finish off the rounded palate, with a lingering finish. The grapes are from Crouch Ridge Estate (Essex), Tudwick Hall (Essex), Riverview (Essex), Crows Lane (Essex), Martins Lane (Essex). Lyme Bay entered into the world of English wine in 2009, planting 26,000 vines within a short distance of their winery in Devon. They also, as with this wine, source grapes from a select group of the best growers in the South of England. The ability to pick and choose their grapes means their award-winning wines are known for their consistency and flavour, year after year.
