Hencote, Solaris, 2018, Shrewsbury, UK

The UK makes good white wine, excellent sparkling and ok red wine but this Hencote, Solaris from Shrewsbury, that’s up north! Is really good, excellent you could say.

It’s fresh and vibrant with smells and flavours of grapefruit, lemon, lime and a mineral undertone on the taste. There’s acidity there which would pair this well with shellfish.

The fact it come from so far up north is amazing and shows the skill of the wine maker.
