This wine is a medium dry white, softer, easy drinking wine and should be slightly chilled for drinking on any social occasion, before or with a meal.

Simply Bacchus

Grape:	Bacchus	Vineyard:	Kemp's Wines
Dryness:	1	Wine Maker:	John Kemp
ABV:	11.5%

Bacchus is widely regarded as the star performer in the English wine industry and we are extremely pleased with the 2006 vintage. Despite the wet August which introduced some unwelcome problems with botrytis, we ended up with a good crop of clean grapes with good sugar and acid balance. We pick early to capture slightly higher acidity. This wine has everything I am looking for in English Wine - fragrant with hints of hedgerows, clean, crisp, fruity with a hint of gooseberry and nice and dry.

This is the successor to our Estate Reserve wine.

Carter's premier Dry White Wine made only from the first juice to leave the press. Bacchus is derived from Riesling and Silvaner grape varieties. It is particularly suited to our cooler climate where it ripens slowly and gently during our summer and autumn. This gives wonderful fruit flavours to the wine and the aroma or elderflowers and lemons.

The wine is essentially English in character, dry fresh and fruity. It should be served well chilled with light foods. This wine will keep well for several years.The 1997 Vintage won a Silver Medal in the International Wine and Spirit Competition.

Carter's Orion 2005

Grape:	Orion (grown without the use of chemicals)	Vineyard:	Carter's Vineyards
Dryness:	1	Wine Maker:	Mary Mudd
ABV:	11%

"A very special wine" made from the Orion grape. This grape variety ripens well in our cool climate and gives an entirely natural crisp, fruity, dry white wine.

This wine represents all Carter's Vineyards are trying to achieve. The fruit is grown without the use of chemicals and nothing is added to the wine during its production until just the minimum sulphur is added at the end as a preservative. It is just fermented grape juice. A reflection of the sunshine and rain from the year in the vineyard.

Like this wine the ever-popular nursery rhyme 'Twinkle, twinkle little star' originates from Colchester. The words were written by two sisters, Ann and Jane Taylor who lived in West Stockwell Street, Colchester over two hundred years ago.

Orion is a crisp dry white wine with delicious asparagus flavours rather like Sauvignon Blanc. It should be served slightly chilled and can be enjoyed accompanying chicken or fish dishes.This wine will have a long life and could be kept for several years.The 1996 Orion won a Bronze Medal in The 1999 East Anglian Wine of the Year Competition.
