Country Wines

Rediscover the taste of traditional country wines

Our Country Wines are inspired by the wines traditionally made from hedgerow fruits and flowers. The range includes both lighter, drier wines and more intense, old-fashioned berry-rich varieties. Many of the country wines make delicious spritzers, mixed 50/50 with soda water. See the right column for a full list of our numerous awards. Our wines are generally produced at 14.5% Alc. When using our guide please be aware that due to the nature of fruits and flowers, a dry country wine will always be a little sweeter than a dry table wine.
