Our Estate made cider from neighbourhood apples. A tangy, zingy, acid-driven medium-dry cider with a moreish aftertaste.

100% Apple and Pear juice, wild fermented, natural haze but only slight. No concentrates, flavourings, or sweeteners – pure fruit in a glass. Comes in at about 7% but you’d never think it.

Drink in wine glasses and serve semi-chilled.

NAME: The Red
STYLE: English Red wine
VINTAGE: 2022
ALC: 11%
VARIETIES: 50/50 Pinot Noir/Pinot Gris
PRODUCED AT: Wolds Wine Estate

Pinot Noir and 1/3 of the Pinot Gris was de-stemmed. The remaining 2/3 of the Pinot Gris was pressed whole bunch. The pressed juice from the Pinot Gris was returned to the tank of de-stemmed grapes. Due to the ripe nature of the vintage careful fruit handling was critical to prevent over extraction, the tank was only plunged once to keep the fermentation happy. Pressed out after 4 weeks and allowed to go through malolactic naturally. Rested in stainless steel on lees for 14 months and bottled in February 2024.

VEGAN/VEGETARIAN FRIENDLY: Yes
EGG/MILK ALLERGENS: No

VINEYARD:
Walton Brook is a 2 hectare (5 acre) vineyard which is South facing and 100metres above sea level, one of the highest points on the Leicestershire Wolds. It comprises of 200 million year old Jurassic fine grained limestone mud made up from carbonates of coral and shell. This is overlain with 2 million year old glacial deposits featuring limestone, flint and ironstone.

Planted in 2009/2010 originally with Solaris, Seyval Blanc, Regent and Madeleine Angevine and then subsequently with Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris and Bacchus.

Set in the middle of a 500 acre conventional arable farm the vineyard is looked after organically but will never achieve official status due to its location.

2020 was a low yielding harvest due to the devastation of heavy frosts in mid May 2020, but the beautiful weather in September helped to produce really fantastic quality fruit. The grapes were all hand harvested in early October.
