These three wines highlight the versatility the Bacchus grape and showcase the skill of the winemakers involved.

Hidden Spring Bacchus Fumé recent winner of a gold medal at the WineGB awards, has a beautiful aromatic character delivering lime, green apple and honeysuckle whilst the palate offers more jasmine and some tropical fruit notes. In addition, the palate is dry, fresh and also rounded and textured. There is a fine harmony of oak spice and creaminess through lees work. The oak is well integrated and allows the fruit to come through.

This wine shows well with salads but will work with a variety of salmon or sea trout dishes. It can definitely be drunk now but this has a potential to age over the next 3 to 5 years, developing complexity and greater integration.

Green Belt Bacchus  has a typical Bacchus freshness and vibrant acidity but what is distinctive is the layered aromatics and flavours which make this a wine to sip and explore as well as seek another glass.  The complex range of flavours and citrus nature make this a wine suitable for lighter dishes with an array of spices and flavours. So it matches Thai or spicy foods well such as fish curries or lemongrass based dishes. 

Litmus Orange Bacchus is pale gold in colour the wine displays hazelnut, fennel, dried orange and marzipan characters on the nose. The palate has a touch of white pepper spice, is full flavoured, discernibly made from Bacchus but the skin maceration gives depth, complexity and texture. There is a degree of astringency on the palate and a long finish. The weight, acidity and texture means it will partner a range of dishes such as slow cooked belly pork, goose and cooked cheese-dishes; anything with a bit of fattiness or rich in dairy. Some cheese merchants believe it is one of the best wines to partner a cheese platter. Joe Fattorini, MW of The Wine Show said: “I like this a lot - a peppery warmth on the back of the palate - delicious”
