Table wines
White: Bacchus 2006
Brightwell Vineyard's Bacchus is a soft and fruity white wine with a slight sweetness to balance its dry structure. The wine captures the aromatic apple flavours of the Bacchus grape in a gentle and easy drinking wine, and an award winner, winning silver at the UK Vineyards Association 2008.
Red: Oxford Regatta 2006
A clean, fully dry red wine, blended principally from Dornfelder grapes. A similar style to northern French or Italian red wines, it has a refreshing clarity and is redolent of English summer berries, with flavours of raspberry and damson. Aged in oak barrels, it is an outstanding example of the ever-improving quality now being achieved in English winemaking.
