Sour cherry - Anise - Bright
Idlewild founder Sam Bilbro grew up hanging out in a winery with his father – later, in the restaurant industry, he was exposed to wines from around the world and was especially struck by the wines of Italy’s Piedmont region. In this case, the inspiration came from Italian house wine.
Sam says, “In Italy, the house wine is often light, fresh, aromatic, and firmly structured so as to pair beautifully next a wide range of foods. That is the inspiration for The Bird. Black cherries, anise, fresh strawberries, freshly turned soil, and spicy floral tones highlight the aromatic profile. The mouthfeel is fresh and bright, leans towards a touch of mouth-filling richness, and quickly moves to a clean and firm food-driven finish.”
Grapes: Dolcetto, Barbera, Nebbiolo
Pair with: Game bird, Claire Bullen's Vietnamese Venison Stew

We can deliver large and heavy orders to the Scottish Highlands & Northern Ireland for £20.95 (our courier charges a higher rate for these regions). Smaller orders will be despatched via Royal Mail at the standard quoted rate. We regret that we cannot deliver internationally.
