English White Wines
Three Choirs Vineyards Estate Reserve May Hill 2017
A medium-sweet wine with powerful grapefruit and ripe citrus fruits mellowed by honeyed notes
A medium sweet wine with distinct grapefruit on the nose and ripe citrus fruits on the palate with honeyed notes. The sweetness is well balanced by the acidity and the result is a refreshing and full-bodied white wine. The Three Choirs Vineyard is south facing on sandy loam soil with a GDC trellis system with 800 vines per acre or 2000 per hectare. Most vines are 10-20 years old, all grapes are hand-picked. The 2017 harvest produced an above-average crop with good ripeness levels and most importantly a good level of crisp acidity. The wine required minimum intervention in the winery and produced a wine of typical varietal character.
