Description
Founders Ron and Judith Gillies first met playing poker on a river boat in the steaming mosquito infested mangroves of the Panamanian jungle. Their eyes met and they knew then that they were going to end up making fruit wines somewhere in the middle of Scotland for a living. The rest is geography.
They started the winery with a bottle, a book and a stick in 1987. Then before they knew it they had a big winery and everything. By 2010 they had opened their first café and bought a new wheelbarrow.

750ml C&C from Hatton Crook Deli. It pours crystal clear pale yellow - gold with a fizzy dissipating white head. The aroma is sweet, crunchy apple, perfumed, dried apple, splash of lemonade, damp hay, must, honeydew melon and some tangfastics. The taste is crisp, dry, snappy, sweet - sour, touch of tartness, tangy, fizzy candy, fresh crunchy green apple, sugary, splash of white wine, melon, white grape, apple skin in the background and light tannin with a drying finish. Medium body and moderate+, effervescent carbonation. Errs a bit too much on the sweet side, but I still like it. Plenty to it.

Bottle form Hatton Crook Deli. It pours crystal clear pale gold with a fizzy dissipating white head. The aroma is sweet - sour, ripe juicy apple, toffee apple, apple crumble, touch of marzipan, woody apple skin and dull barnyard. The taste is crisp, dry, tart, zingy, puckering, nip of acidity, lovely crunchy apple character with some sweetness underpinning it, apple skin, dull tannin, apple pie and some sour apple chewits with a firm and dry finish. Medium body and a touch of fizz. Sourness keeps any sweetness in check. Quenching and moreish.
