2015 special reserve dry white, sherborne castle, dorset

White Blend

The 2015 Special Reserve Dry White, Sherborne Castle is dry, crisp white that is fresh with a delicate, floral character.

The tradition of wine making on the Sherborne Castle Estates started in the Middle Ages when Bishop Roger, who built the Old Castle planted a vineyard on the northern side of the lake. By 1146 this was sufficiently mature to be mentioned in the bull of Eugenius II. In 1982, the tradition was revived on the estate by John Wingfield Digby at Wake Court in Bishops Caundle.
