Astley Old Vine Kerner 2022 (6 Bottles) Stourport-on-Severn, Worcestershire, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
Kerner (a relative of Riesling) is the pride and joy of Astley Vineyard. Produced from vines planted in 1971, Old Vine Kerner is our flagship wine intended for sophisticated dinners, or sharing with appreciative friends.
2022 produced some of the ripest Kerner we have ever experienced - harvested at over 12.5% abv. The result is an astoundingly aromatic and intense wine.
Made of: 100% Kerner (96% from a single tank)
Tastes/Aromas of: Tangerine, Fresh apricot, Orange blossom, Ginger
Sweetness: Dry
Acidity: Medium +
2022 was very kind to our Kerner. Harvested at record sugar levels, this rich & aromatic expression of Kerner is both joyous and fascinatingly complex. The 7 month fermentation, and an extra month on lees created a luxuriously textured wine that somehow managed to not overpower the primary fruit. Enjoy on its own, or alongside rich north European cuisine (roast pork, mushrooms).
Albury Vermouth Bianco (6 Bottles) Guildford, Surrey, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
This off-dry vermouth has been hand crafted from distilled Sauvignon wine blended with Pinot Noir and a lovingly considered selection of botanicals.
Vibrant aromas of sweet orange, mint and kaffir lime leaf are complimented by bold black tea and sweet honeybush with a hint of bay leaf and toasted oak for added complexity. A delicious amalgamation of nutmeg, orange peel, lemon balm and just a hint of Tasmanian mountain pepper adds body and, as with any vermouth, wormwood provides a distinctive tongue-smacking bitterness.
Nyetimber Blanc De Blancs 2016 (6 Bottles) West Chiltington, West Sussex, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
The newest release, the 2016 vintage, continues this legacy, showcasing vibrant citrus notes, delicate brioche undertones, and a creamy texture that reflects Nyetimber’s unwavering commitment to quality. This Blanc de Blancs is a testament to the artistry and dedication behind every Nyetimber wine.
Nyetimber’s Blanc de Blancs, crafted exclusively from a single vintage, exemplifies the pure elegance of Chardonnay. As the first style produced by Nyetimber in the early 1990s, it heralded the estate's pioneering journey into exceptional English sparkling wine. Each bottle spends extended time on lees, developing exquisite complexity and finesse.
Furleigh Estate Sparkling Rosé NV (6 Bottles) Bridport, Dorset, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
An exquisitely elegant sparkling rosé wine showing great finesse.
It has a delicate salmon-pink hue with tiny bubbles. Enticing aromas of wild strawberries and white peach mingle with a hint of rosehip. There are subtle autolytic notes of vanilla-scented brioche and scones with cream.
The mousse is soft and creamy with beautifully integrated bubbles. On the palate, fresh summer berries including cranberry and redcurrant meet stone fruits, nectarine and wild apricot. It has layers of complexity with citrus acidity and delicate minerality. The mouthfeel is excellent and it shows exceptional balance, lingering well after the last drop.
Excellent served well-chilled with seafood such as tuna carpaccio, hand-dived local Lyme Bay scallops or pan-fried garlic prawns. Also good with Thai-marinated fish including sea bass, red mullet or gurnard cooked en papillote with lemongrass and ginger
