Lyme Bay Bacchus Block 2018 is a vibrant and aromatic English white wine produced by the award-winning Lyme Bay Winery in the scenic Axe Valley of Devon. Crafted from 100% Bacchus, a grape variety that thrives in the cool maritime climate of England, this wine showcases the freshness and energy that English whites are now celebrated for.
 
The grapes are sourced from carefully selected vineyards, including Great Whitmans Vineyard in Essex, where Bacchus ripens beautifully and develops intense aromatics. The warm 2018 vintage provided exceptional ripening conditions, producing wines with remarkable fruit expression and balance.
 
On the nose, the wine bursts with grapefruit and citrus aromas, supported by tropical fruit and delicate herbal notes. The palate is bright and lively with refreshing acidity, delivering flavours of tropical peach, citrus zest, and subtle green herbs, leading to a crisp and refreshing finish.
 
Elegant and expressive, this Bacchus is a perfect example of the exciting quality emerging from modern English winemaking.
