FIELD NOTES (1) 2020

English natural wine anyone? Majority Pinot Noir with a little Pinot Blanc this is delightfully light on its feet, refreshing - are we drinking grape fruit juice straight from the tank?

whole bunch Pinot Noir macerated in a tank of direct press Pinot Blanc juice for a gentle 3 week infusion before being split three ways into acacia barrel, burgundy barrel and glass carboy. Ages for 9 months before bringing together with no additions! 

Offbeat Wines began in 2018 as Daniel Ham’s way to express himself while making the wine at Langham Wine Estate in Dorset. From the 2020 harvest Dan and his wife Nicola are making the wines in their own cellar, a converted barn at Botley’s Farm, just outside Salisbury.
