Dillions Bacchus 2020 — “it really exemplifies an English garden to me, it smells of hedgerows, gooseberry and elderflower…” — Aleesha Hansel
Harpers Wine & Spirit Magazine - Harpers’ Choice, August 2021
“Another launch to tickle the taste buds of rosé lovers, this release from Dillions Vineyard is likely to satisfy an insatiable demand for all things pink now British summer has finally arrived…”
John Mobbs, The Great British Wine Round Up, August 2021
Dillions Bacchus 2020 — “This Bacchus has classic varietal aromas of nettle, lime and elderflower, with herbaceous hedgerow and a mineral hint.”
Dillions Rosé 2020 — “Pale in colour, but certainly not pale in character, the Dillions Rosé greets you with cherry, raspberry, pomegranate and grapefruit – it’s very summery but also perfectly crisp.”

Dillions Bacchus 2020 - Silver
Matthew Jukes, Vineyard Magazine, April 2020
“Tasting unlike any Bacchus I have seen before in the UK, Dillions Bacchus proves that new eyes are such a valuable asset in our business. I venture that this wine will convert Bacchus atheists with its unpredictable flavour trail of rhubarb stalks and violets… Fascinating and also memorable, this is a debut […] which will have us all on the edge of our seats.”
