These prices are offered due to the highly competitive positioning of the wines and represent exceptional value within the range. They are available strictly on a case basis—either as 6 bottles of still wine plus — from the Wharie Experience. However, flexibility remains for larger purchases, and orders can still be placed as a mixed selection of 12 bottles or more.

This single-variety white wine—crafted by winemaker Guillaume Lagger defies traditional categorization by blending 50% white winemaking styles with 50% skin-contact orange winemaking. It is a highly textured, silver-medal-winning expression.
Winemaking & Concept
  • Skin-Contact Hybrid: Utilises a precise twist of skin contact during fermentation, with half the yield sitting on skins and 100% aged in oak.
  • Low-Intervention Style: Reflects a modern, charismatic, and natural approach to English still wine.
Structure & Texture
  • Body: Medium-bodied, vibrant, and surprisingly weighty.
  • Tannins: Features a distinctive, savoury twist of fine-grained tannins on the finish, contributing a pleasant "grippy" feel.
  • Acidity: Perfectly balanced, delivering crispness and precision without being overly sharp.
Food Pairings
  • Seafood: Complements rich seafood dishes or a classic clam linguine.
  • Cheese: Pairs exceptionally well with savoury goat’s cheese on toast or standard local cheese platters.
  • Rich Mains: Pairs beautifully alongside a classic Sunday roast.
