Description
The question is “how do you make dessert wine in England and the very short answer is, ‘With difficulty’.
This really is a labour of love for the team at Hattingley.
We never allow rot to form in our dessert wines; instead, we harvest the grapes at a higher-than-usual sugar ripeness and then store 4 tonnes of Bacchus grapes in our walk-in freezer for two weeks at -10C. Once the regular harvest is complete, we carefully extract the juice from the frozen grapes in our press.
Only possible to make in the most outstanding vintages; 2022 was an exceptional year for English wine.
Tasting Note: Pale lemon-hued in hue, Entice Dessert Wine reveals vibrant fragrances of balmy fruits and petals. Notable hints of elderflower and lemon grace the taste buds along with a delightful nectarous personality and plush texture. Its tart acidity artfully counterbalances the wine’s inherent sugary quality emanating from the Bacchus grapes, culminating in a clean, refined and invigorating finish.
