Zero Dosage 2018 (Gift Magnum) £125.00
An early budburst, peak flowering on 20th June, and an excellent ripening season combined to yield a perfect harvest in mid October. This wine was created from the first pass of our east facing Pinot Noir and south east facing Chardonnay with over 100 days on the vine.
The base wines were created with a partial malolactic fermentation to soften the wine, fermented and aged in traditional oak casks and stainless steel and held back in steel on lees for an additional 6 months, bottled with 57 months on lees and uniquely finished without the addition of dosage.

What's Included
Zero Dosage 2018
1 x Zero Dosage 2018 Magnum
With extended ageing in magnum, this pure expression of vineyard and vintage has evolved with striking clarity and depth. The crystalline precision of east-facing pinot noir and Hillside chardonnay remains at the core, but time has softened the edges, revealing deeper layers of citrus – lemon oil, grapefruit peel and preserved orange – alongside yellow plum and greengage. The lees ageing has brought a silkier texture and subtle complexity, with hints of pastry and toasted almond emerging. A refined thread of saline minerality runs through the wine, enhancing its structure and length. Elegant and poised, this magnum shows the remarkable ageing potential of a zero dosage wine crafted with restraint and precision.
