AGENT ORANGE FIELD BLEND 2024

A field blend of organically grown Sauvignon Blanc (33%), Riesling (33%) and Gewurztraminer (33%). Hand harvested and whole bunch fermented as one and left to its own devices and in peace until bottling with no additions apart from a touch of sulphur dioxide – 100 % orange.

92/100 Stephen Wong MW, The Real Review (2024 Vintage)
"Hazy, luminous gold. This is clearly a low-intervention, amber wine. Bursting with complex, savoury, spicy and wild flavours ranging from to dried orange peel, ginger, grapefruit seed and wet stone to mead, hops and white pepper. The palate is dry and grippy with notable pithy tannins closing in from the mid-palate right to the finish, giving it a chewy texture. Enjoy this with food in its youth or let it meld and evolve in bottle over a few years to reveal more of its spicy, savoury side."
