Our helper elves arrived again to help with bottling the rose, a blended wine of Siegerrebe for elegance and aroma, Solaris for body, and Rondo for a rich fruit flavour. An efficient bottling line was soon established, and 175 bottles of Royal Richard are awaiting labelling following laboratory analysis and label approval from the FSA Wine Standards officer.
The rose wine is named after Richard III who almost certainly passed through Rothley on his way from Nottingham Castle to Leicester, then onto the fateful day at Bosworth.
