Orpheus Bacchus 2018

In Stock

One of our most talked about wines to date (and our best Orpheus Bacchus yet!) Made from our very best parcels of Bacchus grapes, a unique expression of Bacchus from some of our oldest vines. The Orpheus is a wine of great finesse, a limited range only made in selected years. A combination of whole bunch and de-stemmed fruit was pressed in an inert environment preserving the aroma and flavour pre cursors to create a concentrated well balanced expression of the Bacchus variety. This wine displays complex and well integrated flavours of elderflower and lychee with defined minerality and excellent persistent length and mouth watering finish.

About The Wine

Tasting Notes

The wine’s acidity, body and complexity lends itself extremely well to food pairing. Try with meaty fish or shellfish dishes, such as monkfish, crab or slow cooked pork belly.

Or why not try with our recipe for Scallops in a creamy Bacchus sauce with Parmesan-Roasted Cauliflower as recommended by our resident chef Aaron
