2021 'Painter of Light' Chardonnay, Blackbook Winery Your Store

2021 'Painter of Light' Chardonnay, Blackbook Winery

Essex, United Kingdom and England

New limited-edition wine from the urban winery Blackbook, based under a railway arch in Battersea, South London.

Grapes are sourced from the single Clay Hill Vineyard in Essex and harvested in mid-October.

This is an aromatic white wine with citrus, honeydew melon and stone fruits over hints of ginger and almond. Peach, zippy lime and a smoky, flinty finish make up a palate that’s both intense and refreshing. A real testament to quality English winemaking.

Blackbook Winery is an urban winery located in a railway arch in Battersea, South London. Their philosophy is simple: blending tradition with innovation. The grapes are sourced from carefully selected growers, who have vineyards within hours of the city and high quality grapes. Blackbook endeavours to bring the hard work of the vineyard owners to the forefront, by creating a range of single-vineyard wines that showcase the quality and potential of producing world-class still wine in England. Focussing on Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, Blackbook uses a minimalist approach, with low to zero sulphur and natural yeasts, as they seek to reflect the vibrancy, culture and energy of London in their wines.

Whole-bunch pressed and fermented in Burgundy barrels with the grapes' indigenous yeast is a low intervention and characterful method of winemaking. 20% is new oak, the rest old. The wine is finally aged for 11 months prior to bottling.
