Isabelle's thoughts on Skin Fermented Chenin Blanc:
I have been an admirer of Megan Bell's ever since meeting her in September 2018, when she was co-sharing a fermenting space. She now makes beautiful wines in her own cellar. Agricultural change is at the heart of what Megan does, championing underrated grape varieties and regions and helping farmers transition to organic farming. This is a pretty restrained skin-contact - the slight orange tint and slight tannic texture are the only giveaways. A spicy, elegant, fresh wine, with some aniseed, bergamot and citrus peel notes, it is highly versatile, and would be great with a seasonal risotto (broadbean, leek etc)
