Astley Justinius Kerner 2022 (6 Bottles) Stourport-on-Severn, Worcestershire, England

£159.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

Named after the German poet after which the grape variety was named, Justinius Kerner is a special edition of "Kerner". Aromatic, intense & delicious.

Made of: 100% Kerner (97% of a single tank, 2% Barrel fermented)

Tastes of: Rhubarb & Ginger compote, Apple, Quince, Ginger

Sweetness: Dry

Acidity: High, Slightly spritzy

2022 produced the ripest Kerner our vineyard has ever produced. Coming in naturally at 12.8% Abv (remembering this is a relative of Riesling), there was an intensity & complexity to this variety that we have never experienced. Spritzy and refreshing, it displays vivid flavours of rhubarb & ginger compote, with a savoury, nutty background. A fantastic aperitif, or paired with pork, fatty fish, or Japanese cuisine. A once in a decade vintage.

Joseph Perrier Champagne Cuvée Royale Brut NV (6 Bottles) Champagne, France

£315.00
by Bancroft Wines

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

Founded in 1825, Champagne Joseph Perrier has been owned and run by the same family since 1888. The cellars stretch over three kilometres and date back to the Gallo-Roman period. All the wines are made with a keen focus on freshness and purity, a theme which runs right through the range and really shows its worth in the vintage cuvées which show impressive energy and poise and remarkable ageing potential.

A brilliant, light-golden yellow hue with delicate copper highlights, offering an elegant visual allure. On the nose, it opens with a refined and subtle bouquet, revealing layers of apples, pears, and white peaches, gradually giving way to more exotic hints of pineapple. The palate is vibrant yet smooth, striking a harmonious balance between complexity, freshness, and body. Floral notes of white blossoms transition gracefully into ripe vine peaches, leading to a crisp, pleasantly tangy finish that lingers with finesse.

12% ABV, Vegan Friendly.

Ashling Park Estate Chardonnay (6 Bottles) Chichester, West Sussex, England

£113.00
by Wines by Cellars

SHIPPING???

From the 2022 harvest at our West Ashling vineyard, this wine opens with an inviting bouquet of local watercress beds, complemented by notes of toasty cashews, cool cinders, and ripe greengage plum.

On the palate, it delivers a delicate interplay of fresh acidity, reminiscent of crunchy nectarine, balanced by a subtle coastal salinity. The finish lingers gracefully, enhanced by a creamy softness imparted by a touch of time in the barrel.

A superb choice as an aperitif, this wine shines when paired with seafood, poultry, or vegetarian dishes, elevating each pairing with its refined complexity.
