£12.75 – £72.00
This brand new range of varietal wines, selected by our team at Waddesdon, represents the finest quality ‘house wines’ we have ever released. This collection of wines offers an impressive level of purity, definition and varietal expression that is rarely associated with this category and price point. After a series of blind tastings our Rothschild Waddesdon range performed exceptionally, and we are incredibly proud to call these wines our own. We hope you have as much fun tasting them as we did selecting them.
Tasting notes
Harvested at night to preserve the integrity of the grape skin and help retain natural purity of aroma. This fabulous Sauvignon Blanc has abundant varietal character with an alluring and classical nose of citrus peel, gun flint, chalk minerality mingled with white flowers and a herbaceous lift. Crisp and elegant with personality and verve. This Sauvignon does what so many don’t at this price point; it delivers flavour and typicity with a good intensity of fruit. Great stuff.
