The 2021 Mix-Up Vol. IV from Blackbook Winery is a delightful English white that showcases the potential of Essex's cool-climate terroir. Situated on Mersea Island, the estate benefits from a warm, sunny, and dry microclimate, ideal for cultivating aromatic varieties like Müller-Thurgau and Reichensteiner.Strictly Wine+2Corking Wines+2Corking Wines+2
Winemaker Sergio Verrillo, who co-founded Blackbook Winery in 2016, brings a minimalist approach to winemaking, focusing on low-intervention techniques. The 2021 vintage was fermented with indigenous yeasts and aged on its gross lees for seven months in previously used Burgundy barrels, adding subtle complexity and texture.
This wine offers aromas of vanilla, white flowers, ginger root, and English garden herbs. The palate reveals ripe stone fruits like apricot and white peach, hints of citrus zest, and a crisp finish.
Pair it with grilled seafood, goat's cheese salad, or a fresh vegetable risotto for a delightful dining experience.
