That was a tough one. Chapeau to all involved in this near Herculean effort. Chapeau chapeau to all who grew for Balfour Winery this year and to my phenomenal team for grinding out the most complex of harvests. Press finishes at around 1 am and then I’m having a beer #vintage24

Today’s task is choosing the music my future wife and I will walk out of the church to…currently pushing for the 2024 Cricket World Cup anthem out of this world. Not convinced anyone else will twig the cricket angle

First Balfour Signature release. 2022 Pinot Noir. One vineyard, one clone, made without fuss. Bright, savoury, and unashamedly English. Not trying to be Burgundy. Just trying to be good Pinot Noir. Balfour Winery #EnglishWine #PinotNoir #CoolClimate #BalfourSignature
