Why we love this wine…

I mean it comes in a litre bottle what’s not to love! On a slightly more serious note though I see this in my local wine shop and I immediately buy it, regardless of what I’ve gone in there for.

It reminds me of being sat by the window in a little wine bar with a friend, talking about our love of wine and how we can turn that passion into a hobby, maybe even a side hustle, whereby any money we make,, we spend on more wine….

I’d already had this wine and I was like an excited kid wanting my friend to try it. I was a bit panicked if she wouldn’t as one litre is a lot for one person to get through but thankfully she loved it as much a I did.

Orange wines- what a revelation! Bolder than white, delightful chilled, smashing with some charcuterie- just a great all-rounder.

We sat and we talked about wine, what we love about wine, the taste, the variety, the history, how gorgeous vineyards are, the move towards biodiverse wines, the taste, did I mention the taste?! We just had the loveliest evening…

And that’s probably why this wine is the first blog post- it inspired partners in wines to exist- for us to chunter about wine and hopefully to share the enthusiasm we have with others.
