A medium dry full of super citrus fruit characters similar to a Sauvignon Blanc. Our unique Bacchus is backed with luscious fruit, this wine is distinctive and aromatic with a slight flinty character overlaid by green apple, gooseberry and a hint of elderflower to top it off with a well-balanced acidity.
