Tasting Notes

2 bottles per-customer - Due to very limited stocks  Beautifully soft, rather grand aroma of Pinot Noir with a touch spice and oak. Beautifully smooth with a plush and velvety texture. This has length for days. Utter decadence... This is probably the best Pinot Noir made in England!

More Info

Located in the warmest, driest area of the UK, the first vineyards were planted at Danbury Ridge in 2014, and 2018 was their debut vintage. And as Jancis Robinson said, "what a debut!" The focus here has, and always will be still wines, and with the climate they have, and the ripeness levels the grapes are reaching, one can certainly see why. When Swig was founded, who knew one day we would be talking about the brilliance of Essex terroir! We firmly believe that Danbury Ridge have raised the bar exponentially for English still wine, and we're so excited to join them at the beginning of their journey.

FROM THE PRESS

“The 2022 Pinot Noir has more concentration than the previous vintage. It shows a mixture of red and black fruit and veins of blue fruit that I have not noticed in previous releases. It's riper but still very well-defined. The palate is medium-bodied with juicy, ripe black fruit, perhaps a little more New World influenced than Burgundy. Grainy tannins are well integrated with impressive grip towards the finish, with a touch of white pepper on the aftertaste. This will require a couple of years in bottle.’ Drink 2024 - 2035”
