Passion and craftsmanship

How do you capture the passion, the purity and craftsmanship of Penn Croft wine, in a brand?

That was the question we set out to answer when the talented and passionate team at Penn Croft approached us to help them launch their premium English wines. Applying our tried and tested immersive discovery process, we started off in the best place possible – a tour of the vineyard and winery followed by sampling their wines. They initially launched a beautiful Bacchus and a perfect Pinot Blanc.

Situated on the Surrey Hampshire border, we were able to spend time with their team understanding their deep knowledge of conservation, their small batch, low interventional approach and their ambitions.

The team has since launched, and sold, a number of successful wines and are being shortlisted and winning awards regularly. You can buy their amazing wines from their website.
