What is Stopham Vineyard Bacchus?

Stopham is known as one of the pioneering vineyards growing aromatic grape varieties like Bacchus, Pinot Gris and Pinot Blanc. Stopham Vineyard owner Simon Woodhead used to work as a Formula 1 racing engineer, and he has poured all of the passion and precision that he used to put into building some of the world’s fastest cars into making some of England’s best white wines.

What’s so great about it?

Stopham’s Bacchus is a brilliantly fresh, crisp and vibrant English white wine – a West Sussex take on zingy aromatic wines like New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc.

What should you drink it with?

Many people say that Bacchus goes brilliantly with classic English vegetables like asparagus, and who are we to argue?

But if you gave us the choice, we’d match it with some tempura-battered shrimp in a sweet chilli sauce.
