GOOD WINE FOR A GOOD CAUSE!
Pre-order our 2023 London Brut now with 20% discountand help secure the future of London’s Vineyard
2023 was a spectacular harvest year for Forty Hall Vineyard, and the Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier that create our London Brut were all of superb quality when they went to press. Our ‘traditional method’ organic sparkling wine has completed the first stage of fermentation in the tank and is now bottled. Just like champagne, it will remain on the lees for eighteen months, for the second phase of fermentation, until it is ready for release, around autumn 2025.
We are offering supporters an opportunity to purchase our 2023 London Brut with a special 20% discount. The wine will be sold In Bond, meaning that you defer payment of VAT and Duty until you choose to release the wine from our Bonded storage, once the wine is ready.
This means you will get our wine at a great price while the income will help with our cashflow, securing the future of our project.
