Burn Valley Vineyard Semi-Sweet Red Vermouth

Gently herbal with a little spice and vanilla notes

Super complex in flavour, smooth and moreish. Gently herbal with a little spice and vanilla notes. Agreeably sweet balanced with subtle tannin and characteristic bitterness. Only four miles from the stunning Norfolk coastline, Burn Valley Vineyard and Winery lie in the village of North Creake. Two sisters work alongside their brother, who farms the land surrounding the vineyard. Burn Valley Vineyard was established in 2016 by the Robinson family; third generation Norfolk farmers. The vineyard name is derived from the river Burn; a rare chalk stream that runs eight miles through North Creek. The chalky, flinty landscape is instrumental in helping Burn Valley thrive.
