2024 Gewürztraminer - Bizarre Love Triangle

This Gewürztraminer was sourced from our Somerset Vineyard. This dry grown block was planted in 2004 on red volcanic clay soil, over weathered limestone. The wine was fermented on sknins for 2 two weeks prior to being aged in large concrete tanks for 5 months. A beautiful floral wine with savoury, dry phenolic grip.

“This conceptual label is a photography project that I started during lockdown in 2020. Each year, post harvest, I’ll take a self portrait to represent that respective vintage which will then be utilized as the label - it aims to offer an insight into what I was thinking that year. In 20 years’ time you’ll be able to line up all of the bottles and see how I mature as both a winemaker and a man.” - Angus Vinden.

2023 Pokolbin Blanc - Lullaby
.
This years' Pokolbin Blanc is a blend of multiple varieties, with some fermented on skins, some in stainless steel, some in clay amphora and some in neutral French oak, to build complexity, weight and texture. I wonder if you can guess what all of these varieties are?! This funky little number is light, fun and delicious.

Sourced from our Somerset Vineyard - the blocks were planted by the Howard family in 1965 & 1969 over fine clay loam soil, the fruit was hand picked in early February. The juice was fermented on fine solids in stainless steel, a concrete pyramid, neutral oak and given extended lees contact to build complexity. The wine shows the character of the old gnarled vines; refreshing natural acidity, citrus fruit, delicate texture & minerality.
