Calusari Pinot Noir
As March hails the arrival of Spring, it is time to swap hearty winter wines for more refreshing options to complement the season.
Calusari Pinot Noir is the perfect transition into a lighter red. Englishman Phillip Cox and his Romanian wife Elvira are producing outstanding wines from their picturesque vineyard in Romania. This Pinot Noir is full of light, soft and welcoming notes of autumn fruits. It has soft and spicy flavours throughout, with notes of soft red fruit and an elegant finish.

January Wine of the Month
Amie Non-Alcoholic Sparkling Rosé
Amie non-alcoholic is a dry, lightly sparkling and refreshing rosé wine from the south of France.
Made from Grenache grapes, amie non-alc is liberated from alcohol through the reverse osmosis process. This process removes the alcohol without evaporation, fully preserving the wine aromas while keeping the residual sugars low; due to this, amie non-alc contains less sugar than other non-alcoholic wines currently on the market.
The wine is perfect as an aperitif and also pairs deliciously with food.

July Wine of the Month
Oh My Orange
This month, we’re uncorking the vibrant and refreshing Oh My Orange—a perfect introduction to the world of Orange Wine.
It is often wrongly assumed that Orange Wines are made with the addition of oranges. However, it is essentially a cross between a red and white wine. When white wines are made, the skins are discarded from the grape juice prior to fermentation. To make red wine, the juice is fermented with the skin which produces the colour and this is also contains the tannins.
Orange wine is made using white grapes but following the method used to produce red wine. The orange colour comes from the amount of contact time the juice had with the skin.
Oh My Orange is made with a blend of Grenache Blanc, Viognier, Muscat and Clairette grapes. It is delicate and smooth with notes of citrus, ripe peaches and aromatic spices. Its soft tannins result in a fresh wine with a pleasant body. A great introduction to Orange wines!
ABV: 13%
£14.49 per bottle, available at the Farm Shop
