National Lobster Hatchery

is a charity that was set up to support the cornish fishery and local lobster population. Lobsters are nurtured from egg through their most vunerable stage of their life cycle and released back into the wild. The visitor centre is open every day of the year except Christmas Day.

Now stocking this amazing "Lobster Wine" made by the fantastic Sommelier's Choice - a huge and special thank you to Tim for making this possible! Every bottle sold will provide a donation to us!

"Muscadet Origin produced from a vineyard planted in 1944 by owner’s great grandfather. It’s a small production of 6,000 bottles of which Sommeliers Choice have secured 2400 bottles to help support the work of the NLH.
The wine is aged in underground cement tanks for three and a half years and 2012 is one of the finest vintages in many, many years. This is the perfect wine to drink with Lobster due to the fruity style whilst classical with a slight salty note."
