Ancre Hill Orange Wine
Country: Wales
Region: Monmouthshire
Grapes: Albarino
Vintage: 2019
Ancre Hill is a 12 hectare estate in Monmouthshire working organically and biodynamically to produce unique, terroir driven wines without the use of herbicides or pesticides - no mean feat in the cool Welsh climate!
This is their intense, savoury 9% orange wine made from Albarino grapes macerated on skins for 30-50 days then aged on the lees for 10 months in a mixture of oak and stainless steel. Bottled unfined, unfiltered and without sulphur, it's fresh and herbal with underlying fruit notes of burnt orange, apricot and quince.
