Eden, eat your heart out. Working alone – except for a flock of chickens, which provide both fertiliser and companionship – Tim enthusiastically tends each individual vine as if it were a favourite houseplant, before making natural wines with zero additions in a tiny, back-to-basics winery.\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;\u0026lt;p\u0026gt;His project is named Charlie Herring after a fictional character Tim’s wine-collecting vicar father invented when he was a child. Made in minute quantities and released only when ready to drink, these bottles are frequently spoken of among geekier English wine lovers, but rarely seen.\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45122093646006,"sku":"7967","price":12.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0727\/1251\/9862\/files\/charlieherring-charliedon-tsur_7967_01_f1c42523_535ea418-3794-47b8-a54b-d4fcb8b4bc8f.jpg?v=1778674390","url":"https:\/\/noblebottle.com\/products\/charlieherring-charliedon-tsurf-2019-7967","provider":"noblebottle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
