Tillingham is the brainchild of winemaker Ben Walgate who crafts natural wines from his 70 acre farm near Rye in East Sussex.
Field Blend 1 is a blend of six aromatic white varietals harvested exclusively from Tillingham's own biodynamically farmed estate vineyards. Grapes are hand sorted then whole bunches are trodden by foot, soaked for twenty-four hours and pressed straight to five-year-old barrels for fermentation. Rose gold in appearance with lifted aromas of elderflower, greengage and pear with rounded acidity and a touch of grip on the palate from the skin contact.
