Organic Wines

We produce an interesting range of organic wines, mead and cider. These cover a wide spectrum of tastes, with something to suit every palate, from our dry English grape wine, through an exciting variety of fruit wines, to our mellow mead. Here are some suggestions:

To accompany savoury food such as fish, seafood, white meat or vegetarian cuisine, the Dry White Table Wine is recommended, although you could also use the Dry Gooseberry, Folly or Apple Wine.
Our full-bodied Dry Elderberry Wine is a perfect substitute for a red grape wine.
The perfect complement to spicy food, like curry, is our Dry Cider.
To accompany a fruit-based dessert, the Raspberry or Tayberry Wines would be a natural choice.
As an aperitif or party wine the Plum or Red Gooseberry are recommended.
A long drink or spritzer can be made by adding ice and/or soda water to the Plum, Raspberry or Tayberry Wines.
As an after-dinner drink, (especially at Christmas), the Ginger Wine or Mead come into their own. Both are delicious with biscuits or cake and both make a welcoming winter drink or aperitif.
Our new Raspberry Liqueur makes an irresistible after-dinner tipple. It can also be incorporated into desserts or mixed with sparkling wine to make Kir Royale.

All our products are vegetarian and all but the mead are vegan. All our wines can be drunk young. There is no benefit in keeping them to mature. However, if you do want to store them, they will keep better in a cool place. For more detail on individual products, click the appropriate headings below.

Growing organically
