Pebblebed Devon White Wine

Described as an English version of a Malborough Sauvignon, this Devon White is a blend of Seyval Blanc and Madeleine Angevine grapes. A fresh, crisp wine with good fruit notes and a hint of Muscat flavours on the finish, it makes a superb aperitif or accompaniment to fish and seafood. Age restriction: Over 18s.

"Pebblebed started as a community project in 1999, when 11 local families - under the direction of Geoff Bowen - came together to plant the first half-acre of vines in an idyllic setting just to the South of Exeter in Devon. From these beginnings, Geoff and his wife Anna quickly realised their passion for viticulture, and with considerable help from the community and local farmers, Pebblebed has grown to more than 20 acres of vineyards and a modern winery. In a good year, close to 50,000 bottles of wine are produced, both sparkling and still, and the company regularly wins medals and awards in local and national competitions. English sparkling wine is now widely recognised as some of the best in the world, and tastings have shown Pebblebed Sparkling to be amongst the best in England. Pebblebed’s vineyards are managed carefully, to encourage wildlife and reduce the impact of farming on the environment; its wines are made with similar care and the minimum use of additives in order to best exhibit the wonderful Devon ‘terroir’.Source: Topsham, Devon"
