Aldwick Estate Flying Pig Red Blend 2023 (6 Bottles) Bristol, Somerset, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
A delightful union of Regent and Pinot Noir, the Flying Pig red blend is a light and fruit-forward wine crafted with finesse by winemaker Steve Brooksbank.
Bursting with vibrant aromas of black cherry and ripe plum, the nose is as inviting as it is expressive. On the palate, juicy and mouth-watering acidity is beautifully complemented by smooth, supple tannins, making this wine both refreshing and approachable.
Serve slightly chilled to enjoy its youthful charm and easy drinkability—a true crowd-pleaser that pairs effortlessly with casual gatherings or relaxed dining. At just 10.5% ABV, it’s as enjoyable for its lightness as for its glug-worthy appeal.
Giffords Hall St Edmundsbury Red Blend 2022 (6 Bottles) Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
Our award winning red is a vibrant blend of Pinot Noir and Rondo which takes its name from the historic St Edmundsbury Cathedral which once grew vines within its abbey walls. In the medieval period, a third of the tithe to Rome was paid in hogsheads of wine. It is this heritage which has inspired our best-selling English red.
A rich purple inky hue with aromas of vanilla, blackcurrant and toasted spices followed by a vibrant brambly palate with underlying savoury notes on the finish.

Hanwell Eglantine R&R Red Blend (6 Bottles) Hickling Pastures, Nottinghamshire, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
Rondo and Regent both deliver distinct flavours. The Rondo has a smoky aroma and is the initial flavour, think Summer barbeques. The tannins and dark fruits of the hedgerow, sloes, damsons and blackberries then kick in delivering a round rich mouth.
This rare creation is Eglantine’s first red wine for a decade! Made from the grapes of a small quantity of red grape vines. Regent and Rondo grape varieties have a short growing season, allowing them to ripen well in the Nottinghamshire climate. Made into wine in South Nottinghamshire by international award winning maker Tony Skuriat, a true local wine!
This wine is a blend across multiple vintages: 2017 through to 2022. The juice began it’s fermentation on the skins, giving it a deep red colour and rich tannins.
Looe Valley Locrenton Red (6 Bottles) St.Keyne, Cornwall, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
Made from our own early Pinot Noir together with Regent grapes from another Cornish vineyard. Aromas of red cherry, blackcurrant, redcurrant and cranberry together with hints of white pepper and spice. On the palate, very fruity with longer lasting plum. Will develop over time, drawing out more complex flavours. Pairs well with rich food.
Melbury Vale Batch #02 The Signature (6 Bottles) Shaftesbury, Dorset, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
When Melbury Vale first built their winery, that vintage yielded a very small crop of what became the original Signature wine. It was a one-off bottling that represented a light fruity red wine that could be enjoyed throughout the summertime. Fast forward a few years later and our winemaker, through some blending trials, found that some of the 2018 red blend mixed with the 2018 rosé wine in tank created a juicy, fruity, flavorful light red we couldn’t stop sipping. The 2018 rosé was slightly different from the 2019 Virtue we bottled, so we decided to use the rosé in a fun, experimental way. While it’s not typical to blend red and rosé wine, once the blending started we felt like we had created something novice wine lovers all the way to oenophiles would enjoy and appreciate. On the nose you immediately pick up notes of wild cherry, fig, and bramble, while the palate is a burst of cranberry, pomegranate, and hibiscus. Best served slightly chilled, this is a crowd pleaser and is a great base wine for a party jug of a sangria type wine cocktail.
Food Pairings: charcuterie spread with cured meats, hard cheeses, grilled peppers, artichokes, and olives. Could also stand up to any dark chocolate dessert because of the bright fruitiness. Also try with balsamic macerated berries.
Poulton Hill Arlington Red (6 Bottles) Cirencester, Gloucestershire, England

Named after the Arlington cottages in Bibury, this delicious red wine was handpicked and produced by the multi-award winning Poulton Hill Vineyard.
Deep ruby in appearance, with a beautiful nose of cherry, blackberry and hints of strawberry. The palate is medium bodied, bursting with English red berries, further dark cherry and damson at the forefront. Subtle oak and soft tannin make for a wonderfully well-balanced finish.
