Why It’s On Our Shelves
A richer, barrel-aged expression of Bacchus with creamy depth and warm winter character
Produced in Norfolk by Cobble Hill →
Cobble Hill’s Bacchus Special Reserve offers a luxurious and deeply expressive take on England’s most iconic white grape. Aged in new acacia barrels, this small-batch release shows a richer, more textured side of Bacchus — one with creamy weight, subtle spice and beautiful winter appeal.
The classic Bacchus aromatics are all here: elderflower, citrus, gooseberry and soft herbal notes. But the barrel ageing adds an elegant layer of warmth, roundness and gentle vanilla-spice, giving the wine a depth and complexity rarely seen in English Bacchus. The palate is smooth and full-bodied, with a long finish that balances freshness with refined richness.
This is Bacchus reimagined — sophisticated, comforting and made for cooler evenings, generous food pairings and slow, luxurious sipping. A standout bottle for those who love Bacchus but want something deeper, creamier and more indulgent.
