Lord's started producing wines in 2006. The first bottles to go on the market were Sauvignon Blanc and Sauvignon Blanc Organic. Both wines were well received and were sold out by the end of the season.
In 2007, both Sauvignon Blanc wines have again been produced along with two further varieties - Shiraz and Chardonnay.
The geographical location and terroir of Lord's make it ideally suited for growing the Pinot Noir grape.
The two Sauvignon Blanc varieties, the Shiraz and Chardonnay can now be tasted at, and purchased from, the Cellar. Please telephone ahead to avoid disappointment.
Update on wine availability - August 2008:
We hope you have enjoyed the 2006 red and the 2007 white wines which "Lord's" have supplied during the past year. Lord's 2006 Shiraz has now been "sold out", but stocks of Lord's Sauvigon Blanc 2007 and Chardonnay - wooded 2007, will still be available for a limited period.
However at this time of year some wines which were fermented in February / March have been bottled and labelled and have matured to a level which satisfies our quality standards and allows their release.
We are confident that the quality of these 5 new wines from Lord's will at the very least, maintain the satisfaction which you had last year from our wines.
If you wish to purchase wines but have difficulty in visiting the Cellar in
person, contact us and we will try to arrange a mutually
acceptable delivery.
New white wines which now become available are:
- Lord's Sauvignon Blanc 2008
- Lord's Barrel Ferment Chardonnay 2008
- Lord's Chardonnay 2008 (un-wooded)
- Lord's Shiraz 2007
- Lord's Pinot Noir 2007 (Lords first vintage of
this cultivar)
