Balfour Hush Heath Liberty's Bacchus 2022

In the words of respected wine journalist Tanlyn Currin “I’d have this wine over a clanging New Zealand Sauvignon any day”. Liberty’s Bacchus is named after the vineyards’ Head Dog, and is made from grapes grown on the Foxridge vineyards, at the very top of Hush Heath Estate.

An evolution of the English Bacchus style and from a winemaking standpoint our most complex wine to make. Wild ferments and oak are used to create layers of complexity, body and a spicy character which add a new dimension to the traditional Bacchus flavours of hedgerow and elderflower.

Tasting Note: An intense, grassy nose with hints of rose petal and citrus spice. Fresh acidity with green apple, tangerine peel and a long, bright finish.
Winemaker’s Food Pairing: An ideal aperitif or food wine; try it with asparagus, artichoke, salami and oriental cuisine.
