Orange Wine 2020 - Ancre Hill
Ancre Hill from Wales bringing an orange wine as fun as the label, Clockwork Orange style.
100% whole bunch maceration of mostly Albarino grape for between 30-50 days. Fermentation is finished off in oak and stainless steel for ageing on gross lees for a minimum of 10 months.
No filtration, no fining, no SO2 additions gives a uniquely savoury and zippy nectarine and herby natural as it comes wine. Almost aperitivo vibes.
Founded in 2006 by Richard and Joy Morris, the aim of Welsh estate Ancre Hill is to produce the best possible grapes and deliver wines of the highest quality. Organic since day one, Ancre Hill introduced biodynamic practices in 2011; they gained organic certification in 2013, and Demeter certification in 2014. You won't find any insecticides, pesticides or herbicides here!
Their winery exemplifies their natural philosophy, with its green roof and its walls made from straw bales. The building’s waste water is also treated in ecological pools and reused on the vineyards. The style of wines at Ancre Hill is ever-evolving, ranging from classic Chardonnay to the pure joy in a bottle that is their Pet Nat. They are produced with minimal intervention and manipulation, with small batch fermentations occurring almost entirely in oak barrels with only wild yeasts, and are super expressive and full of character.
