Melbury Vale Exuberance (6 Bottles) Shaftesbury, Dorset, England

£81.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

Our Exuberance English red wine comes from red grapes grown at a local vineyard Melbury Vale co-manages. This 2018 red blend comes from the “Harvest of a Lifetime” here in the UK, where the growing season stayed extraordinarily warm and sunny. The 2018 Exuberance is a blend of Triomphe d’Alsace [TDA] and Dornfelder grapes. TDA and Dornfelder are both cool climate grapes that that have dark skins and balanced fruit and acidity flavors. The grapes were co-fermented and half of the must was left to sit on the skins for over 12 months. This was the first time we tried this winemaking technique at Melbury Vale. One common note about English red wines is that they can lack body and tannin structure. The time half of the wine spent with the skins allowed for not only a deeper color, but a more rich texture and mouthfeel. We loved the balance of the wine being more full bodied (not often a term used to describe English red wine) but also the fresh fruitiness of the wine thanks to the amazing 2018 vintage. We bottled this wine unfiltered as we felt filtering it would omit the beautiful flavor and viscosity we are so excited about.

On the nose we get aromas of black cherry and dried herbs, with flavors of spiced plum, bramble, and a savory note to finish.

Food Pairings: barbecued meats, aged cheeses, and anything dark chocolate.

Meophams Phoenix Brut Rosé 2019 (6 Bottles) Meopham, Kent, England

£171.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

A lively and flirtatious sparkling rosé, crafted from pinot noir and reichensteiner. Beautiful pale salmon in colour, it glistens like the sunsets over our kentish vineyard. A seductively fragrant wine, expressing aromas of wild strawberries, ripe cherry and peach skin, with a hint of lush grassy englishness. The palate shows a generous flush of red apple, luscious strawberries and cherries, with a subtle creaminess on the finish.

Amber Valley Amara Pinot Noir Précoce 2023 (6 Bottles) Wessington, Derbyshire, England

£203.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

Amber Valley Pinot Noir Précoce 2023 is an exceptional expression of Midlands-grown Pinot Noir Précoce, crafted as a collaborative masterpiece between Amber Valley Wines and talented winemaker Jack Abbotts at Three Choirs Vineyard.

It displays a vibrant ruby hue with garnet reflections. The nose is elegant and aromatic, showcasing morello cherries, ripe red fruits, and a subtle hint of blackberries. Delicate spiced notes of allspice and vanilla emerge, layered with earthy undertones that hint at its barrel maturation.

On the palate, the wine is beautifully balanced, with a soft, velvety texture and graceful tannins. The red fruit core is complemented by gentle spice and a whisper of oak-driven vanilla. The acidity is well-integrated, offering freshness while supporting the wine’s structure.

The malolactic fermentation and oak ageing contribute to a rounded, harmonious body with a touch of complexity. The finish is long and refined, with lingering notes of cherry, spice, and a touch of earthiness that promises graceful ageing potential.

A versatile partner, it pairs perfectly with rosemary roast lamb, game dishes, grilled pork, roast salmon, or earthy mushroom-based cuisine. Its elegance and structure also make it a delightful wine to savor on its own. This is a stunning Midlands Pinot Noir Précoce, showcasing exceptional terroir and meticulous craftsmanship, offering both immediate pleasure and the potential for further development.

Smith and Evans Higher Plot Sparkling 2015 (6 Bottles) Langport, Somerset, England

£222.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

This is quite possibly the best sparkling wine that we’ve made so far. The 2015 combines the richness of our 2013 and the crisp fresh side of 2014 a balance that gives the best of both worlds. The wine is pretty much equal quantities of Chardonnay , Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier with 15% Reserve Wine from previous vintages going right back to 2010 .

It was disgorged in late 2019 after four years on the lees. It still has plenty of room for development and will continue to improve for five or more years.
