THE SOMMELIER’S SELECTION
“GREAT SPRING WINES”
1231 Vintage Brut
Exclusively handcrafted for Hay Wines by the Padroggi family in Oltrepo Pavese, Northern Italy. Made from 100% organic Pinot Noir grapes and aged at least 30 months on the lees. This sparkling wine shows a complex, warm and elegant nose dominated by enticing notes of dried fruit, toasted almond and honey. Good structure, with a beautiful creamy texture intensified by fine lingering bubbles. The finish shows a remarkable length, with creamy notes of butter combined with rich fruitiness of ripe pear. The perfect celebration wine.
This wine is named in honour of the foundation of St Katherine’s Hospital, one of Ledbury’s oldest buildings, in 1231 by bishop Hugh Foliot.

Angoris Merlot Villa Locatelli
Merlot has been Friuli’s most widely planted red varietal for over 100 years. The colour of this wine is ruby red with purple highlights. The nose is delicate, fruity with fresh notes of raspberry, strawberries and red flowers. To the palate, Villa Locatelli Merlot is light, harmonious, with a clean finish. Malolactic fermentation and 5 months aging in oak barrels give to this wine a great drinkability and almost sweet tannins.
Cantine Belisario Lacrima di Moro d Alba
Floral aromas of roses, lilies, violets, lavender with a touch of black fruit. The medium palate has more violets, blackberries, mixed herbs and a note of spice with soft sweet tannins. Lacrima is certainly amoungst the most exciting of Italy's indigenous grape varieties.

Schiefer Blaufrankisch Eiesenberg
The first step into Uwe's world of Blaufränkisch. Clearly structured, cool, refreshing with its minerality. Medium ruby-garnet, violet reflections, with the nose of sour cherries; this way, it can already be enjoyed in its youth. Truly fun to drink: a wine to "have fun with" more often.

The Drift Farm Year of the Rooster Rose
The Drift Farm Year of the Rooster Rose is about celebrating the outdoor, sun filled lifestyle. Each vintage is slightly different, reflecting mostly the different growing season weather, but also to a lesser extent the winter weather - cold units and winter rainfall affect budburst and initial growth. Light pink colour, with an intriguing floral nose of nectarines and strawberries. The palate is awash with spring blossoms and cherry, with just a hint of blackberry tannin. It is deliciously creamy, but bone dry.
