RoebuckÂs Estate vineyards are located close to the market town of Petworth in West Sussex. Roebuck adopts the approach of using only the finest quality grapes, which they source from a variety of premium Sussex vineyards. The majority of the vineyards are located on chalk, clay, and sandy soils. Once the grapes are perfectly ripe, they are carefully handpicked and transported to the winery. The bunches are then whole bunch pressed and fermented in a mixture of stainless steel and Burgundian oak barrels.
16 points, Jancisrobinson.com: âFloral fragrance floats like a cashmere scarf over mouth-filling doughnut-peach and pink-grapefruit sappiness. Strawberry chalk dust. Lovely ripeness softening the impact of firm, linear acidity. Tiny bubbles stitching lace through the wine. Real integrity and harmony. The next day the wine was even better, holding its fruit beautifully, with almost casual grace. This would be so good with a tissue-thin slice of jamón ibérico!"
