The Grapes for all our wines have been tended and picked by hand
and
the wine made and bottled entirely on the estate with minimum intervention.
All of the wines make a good aperitif and are excellent with a range of food.
In particular they partner rich and spicy foods well. Try them with smoked salmon, fish and chicken dishes,
oriental food, leek tart and cold, smoked meats.
Three new wines are now on sale at £7.10 each. The
prices have had to increase due to government duty increases.

Oxford Dry 2007 This bottle is
just one of 2488 produced in 2007. The grapes for this
wine (Huxelrube, Bacchus, Perle) have been tended and picked by
hand and the wine made entirely on the estate with minimum
intervention. This year this has resulted in an attractive
light blush to the wine which complements its intense fruit and
floral flavours. Lovers of Sauvignon Blanc will enjoy this
wine. Superb with rich white cheeses. Formerly
won
silver medal winner in the Thames and Chilterns Vineyard Association
Wine (TVCA) Challenge and Winner of the Mac Mackinnon
Trophy for best white wine in the region in 2005. 11.5% vol
75cl Dry

The Paradox 2007 The Paradox
is a concentrated, medium wine brought about by the heavy rains!
The 2007 July storms caused our Ortega and Findling to set
seedless fruit which formed small berries. These berries
ripened with high sugars and outstanding flavours. Early
picking ensure good balancing acidity. Only 1,218 bottles
of this extraordinary wine have been produced. Nectarines and a hint of dill seed on the nose giving way to
peaches and cream on the palette.
An excellent
wine which should age well and develop in complexity. A
delectable aperitif, it would partner onion tart, pate, smoked
meats and Oriental food.

Oxford Pink
By the careful blending of the first fruit from our young red
varieties, with our mature whites (Huxelrube and Ortega), Bothy
Vineyard has produced its first rosé. Dry and elegant, its
restraint resembles old world rosés. A hint of cherries and rose
petals. Only 461 bottles of this well structured wine were
produced.
