Frederiksdal, Nielstrupmark

The world’s first single-orchard cherry wine. The cherries are picked exclusively from our best orchard, Nielstrupmark, which was home to the oldest Stevnsbær cherry trees on the Frederiksdal Estate.

Only the best 15 out of the 40 barrels from Nielstrupmark have been selected for the 2013 vintage, with the remainder left to either rest on its lees (sur lie) or undergo further ageing as a reserve wine.

Exceptional, full-bodied and complex taste experience. Sweet, thick, sour cherry, vanilla, chocolate.

One hell of a Christmas present.

Fruit: Stevns cherry

Place: Lolland, Denmark

PRODUCER PROFILE

Frederiksdal are the first and so far the only producer of wine made by cherries following the centuries old principles for making traditional wine from grapes. The Stevns cherry is the base of the wine and the berries are produced solely in the plantations of Frederiksdal. The wine will ferment freely and is kept both outside in glass vats/balloons in all kinds of weather and also inside in old, French oak vats. Frederiksdal Estate in Southern Denmark is where all their wines are produced.  The history of Frederiksdal Estate dates back to 1756. The cherry adventure started in 2006 almost by accident. From here on, the story developed fast and so did an ambition to produce the best cherry wine in the world, never compromising on the quality of the raw materials.
