a’Becketts Vineyard Lynchets 2018

Lemon and peach, hawthorn blossom and a soft, long finish

Back in 1999 Paul Langham was bored of working in the corporate world and one Saturday in June 1999, while drinking a glass of wine, he said out of the blue to his wife Lynn: ‘We must be able to do this’ – and that is how their whole adventure in English Wine started. Lynn was able to find the right land in the right location and in April 2001 they planted their first vines and harvested their first vintage in 2003. The vineyard now extends to over 11 acres. Their Pinot Auxerrois is a lovely, easy drinking white which demonstrates gentle lemon and peach flavours and a hint of delicate hawthorn blossom on the nose.
