This isn’t your average red—it’s a bold, juicy rebel from the Sussex Downs, made from a single parcel of estate-grown Cabaret Noir, a PIWI variety that’s as exciting as it sounds. Think of it as the cool indie track on an otherwise classical playlist. The nose bursts open with black cherries and plums, wrapped in the rich aroma of freshly roasted cocoa beans. Then come the deeper notes—sticky dates, a touch of cedar, and a twist of fresh-ground paprika, adding just the right kick of spice. On the palate, it’s generous and full of swagger. Richly flavoured but perfectly balanced, with chewy, flexible tannins that know how to hold the spotlight without stealing the show. It's got structure, but it still knows how to party. A conversation starter, a table talker, and a deliciously different take on English red. PIWI power, Sussex style.
