On each harvest day our grape haul is whizzed down to Davenport Vineyards into the expert wine-making hands of Will Davenport to create our wines. Last October we decided that we wanted to see the winemaking process for ourselves, so we kept a couple of crates of Bacchus grapes back for a little in-house experimentation and education.
Led by our vineyard manager Chus we dusted off a borrowed small wine press and set to work and here we are four months later with the finished 2019 vintage!
The verdict? It’s delicious! Our 100% natural unfiltered Bacchus was as fresh and crisp as this winters day!
We also had a little competition amongst ourselves to name our wine and by a narrow margin the winning name was Bac-Chus - named after our vineyard manager!
Cheers!
Join us for a picnic, live music and a glass of wine in the vines. All for a good cause :)
