So nice to see wines like this coming from the UK, and Flint Vineyard, based in East Anglia, consistently delivers exceptional quality.
The Flint Vineyard Pinot Noir Precoce 2025 boasts an alcohol content of 12%. This wine is a blend that includes some traditional Pinot Noir alongside the early-ripening Fruhburgunder, also known as Pinot Precoce. It is fermented and aged in concrete tanks and neutral oak, resulting in a wine that is joyful and juicy, with a wonderful texture and a hint of seriousness.
Tasting notes reveal juicy redcurrant and cranberry at the forefront, complemented by soft strawberry flavors that fill out the mid-palate. The wine finishes fresh, making it highly drinkable when slightly chilled. This wine is a real delight, rated 92/100.
For purchasing, it’s available at £110 for six bottles directly from the winery, while single bottles retail for around £25, though many shops may still have the excellent 2024 vintage in stock.
