Every school morning the two sisters behind Eaight at the Gate assemble their eight children ‘at the gate’, ready for the school bus to pick them up. Hence the name of the brand here. That’s a pretty cool story, and a pretty cool name for a range of wines.
There’s a pure line of red cherry flavour here, tending towards both strawberry and raspberry, which combines well with sweet, woodsy spice and citrus notes, and leads to a juicy, refreshing finish. There’s a subtle textural element too, and an overall impression that everything is squeaky clean. This is both mouth-watering and good. 91 points.
