Good Friday turned out the loveliest of days to give our 2020 #PinotNoir & 2020 Pinot Noir #Précoce a final sampling before their release - somebody’s got to do it, haven’t they?! These wines were produced from the very ripest of our fruit, both attaining 13.5% ABV. #crouchvalley

Phew, what a crop! A fair few tonnes more Bacchus than was predicted early in the year. Don’t you just love the English weather foibles. In the first harvest since he passed away, I think we held up the high standards set by our founder Roy. Plenty more days of harvest to come 💪

Very early morning harvest today - Pinot Gris grapes. Half for us to make our Pinot Grigio & the rest going to Freedom of The Press Winery in Oxford for their amazing Pinot Gris. Beautiful morning (thankfully not too cold like yesterday 🥶 ) #crouchvalley #pinotgris #essex #wine
