Brabourne Albermarle Chardonnay 2023 (6 bottles) Ashford, Kent, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
This wine shows fragrant notes of green apple, lemon and mint on the nose with hints of lime. It’s very refreshing on the palate, mineral and crisp which makes it a perfect food wine: a delicious accompaniment to salads and sea food. Best served between 10-12ºC. ABV 10.5%
Welcombe Hills Ophelia Brut Rosé 2022 (6 Bottles) Stratford-upon-Avon, Warwickshire, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
Inviting nose with red berry fruit (strawberry and raspberry), quince, nectarine, and delicate floral aromas (white rose petal).
Fresh red berries on the palate alongside crisp red apple give an initially bright attack, with the suggestion of stone fruits giving a slighter rounder feel to the wine. Floral notes linger on the palate giving an elegant finish.
Would work great with crab and richer shellfish dishes in creamy sauces with plenty of depth. Lobster ravioli anyone?
Made with 100% Pinot Précoce
Black Dog Hill Classic Cuvée 2019 (6 Bottles) Ditchling, East Sussex, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
The Black Dog Hill Classic Cuvee 2019 represents another fabulous vintage from this consistently strong vineyard.
The three grape blend gives a wonderful toasty and energetic finish. It was a marvellous summer in 2018 and this wine captures and reminds one of exactly that.
Fabulous.
Albourne Estate Bacchus 2022 (6 Bottles) Albourne, West Sussex, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
English-grown Bacchus grapes produce aromatic, fresh and crisp wines similar in style to Sauvignon Blanc but with their own distinctive aroma profile.
As is typical of the varietal, our 2022 Bacchus is pale, with a crisp light mouth feel and recogniseable aromatic complexity.
The diversity of aromas can range from herbaceous (tomato leaf, basil, sage, nettle, asparagus, grassy) to citrus (lime zest, lemon, grapefruit) to tropical fruit (medlar, mango, passionfruit) to floral (elderflower, honeysuckle) with the intensity ranging from punchy and intense to more subtle and elegant.
Our style of Bacchus aims for intriguing aromatic complexity and subtle elegance which we believe the 2022 delivers in abundance.
More about the Bacchus grape
The variety originated in Germany in the 1930’s as a cross between Muller-Thurgau and Silvaner x Riesling which has helped contribute to its complex nature. In order to enhance this complexity and build ‘terroir-character’ into our wines we blend multiple unique batches picked on different dates, split into different press fractions and fermented with different yeasts.
Food Match Suggestions: The crisp acidity and freshness makes Bacchus perfect as an appetising aperitif wine. It also pairs beautifully with English asparagus or goats cheese as well as seafood such as dressed shellfish or stronger flavoured salads such as Caesar or rocket.
