Printers Devil
A printer’s devil was an apprentice typically a young boy in a printing establishment who performed a number of tasks such as mixing tubs of ink and fetching type. Over the years he has been referred to as Belphegor Gremlin & Titivillus after which the wines in this unique range have been named. This wine symbolises the fanciful belief among printers that a special devil haunted every print shop performing mischief such as misspelling words and removing entire lines of completed type.
Description
Mineral freshness with a touch of green grass and a tropical flavour are evident on the nose. Fresh and elegant Semillon richness waiting to burst through. The Semillon adds a very nice creaminess to the wine on the finish.
Food Pairing
Red Thai chicken curry, roast gammon, smoked salmon, shellfish, and Asian cuisine. A very versatile blend which can be paired with many dishes.
