🌟 A vibrant English orange wine—textured, zesty, and joyfully wild.

👁 In the Glass:
Golden amber with a subtle haze—natural and alive.

👃 On the Nose:
Bright and aromatic. Lively notes of nectarine, green citrus peel, and fresh fennel leap from the glass, with a hint of wild herbs.

👅 On the Palate:
Light-bodied yet taut. Sour stone fruits and grapefruit pith drive a juicy, zesty texture with a fine thread of spice and gentle tannins. Clean, dry, and refreshing on the finish, with a playful grip and natural energy.

🍽 Food Pairing:
Excellent with grilled halloumi, fermented vegetables, roast cauliflower, or lightly spiced dishes. A brilliant match for eclectic, seasonal fare.

⏳ Ageing Potential:
Best enjoyed young for its zing and tension, though may develop added savoury depth over 2–3 years.

✨ Why You’ll Love It:
‘Little Bee’ is a buzz of flavour and texture—England’s answer to natural orange wine, with precision, punch, and charm. A wine for curious palates and free-spirited tables.
