Giffords Hall Gainsborough 2018

Giffords Hall is a family owned vineyard planted on the site of an ancient glacial riverbed near Long Melford in Suffolk. Their sandy/clay soil produces quality grapes, high in natural sugars and acids, that lend themselves particularly well to both sparkling and dry, aromatic still wines. The vineyard was planted around 25 years ago and the vines are now in their prime. Their Gainsborough is based on Madeleine Angevine, and has spent time in oak to round out the wine and add more body to it.
