Carr Taylor Sparkling Rosé (6 Bottles), Hastings, East Sussex, England

£140.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

The Pinot Noir and Dornfelder grapes lend a delicate pink shade to the wine and a fresh raspberry and redcurrant streak on the palate. The soft acidity and hint of sweetness give this wine the perfect character for celebrating with friends.

Tuffon Hall Pinot Gris 2023 (6 Bottles) Halstead, Essex, England

£106.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

This limited release Pinot Gris is very reminiscent of an Alsace Pinot Gris, richer than the Bacchus and fuller bodied it is very well balanced. Floral notes, ripe melon and a touch of citrus on the nose and flavours of Elderflower, apricot and peach on the palate. This wine has a slight spice and yet a refreshing finish.

Sugrue Rosé Ex Machina 2018 (6 Bottles) Haywards Heath, West Sussex, England

£297.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

Rosé Ex Machina isn't a wine we taste, rather, it's a wine we drink, consume, inhale – such is its opulence and indulgence. It looks, smells, tastes gorgeous. Nectar from the heavens; a wine from the sky.

Like Deus Ex Machina – an act of divine intervention in Greek tragedy that resolves the seemingly impossible on stage – Rosé Ex Machina was the result of our own much needed bolt from the blue in 2016: an initially difficult vintage saved by a glut of grapes from Jenkyn Place vineyard that were, quite literally, perfect.

Fortune struck again in 2018 – a year that wasn't just full of sunshine, but was relentlessly warm and bright from start to finish, without a puff of wind, and virtually no rain. That remarkable summer is evident at its core.

With four and a half years on lees, and another twelve months in bottle, the 2018 Rosé Ex Machina is serene and expansive. Blood orange one minute and wild raspberries the next; juicy and creamy, but with razor-sharp focus – it's tasting better than ever.

Isabel Estate Pinot Noir 2022 (6 Bottles) Marlborough, New Zealand

£173.00
by Bancroft Wines

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

Isabel Estate is one of the original Marlborough vineyards with some of the oldest vines in the region on original rootstock. Throughout the 1980s the couple planted key noble varietals and began to deliver fruit of exceptional quality, in high demand from premium and internationally renowned wine producers. Under the leadership of Chief Winemaker Jeremy McKenzie, the winery continues to build its reputation for award winning Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir but is also producing world class Chardonnay. Recognised and awarded, the estate has won. All fruit is estate grown from the 54 hectares of vines, most of which are now organic.

This Pinot Noir is a mesmerising ruby-red hue sets the stage for an aromatic experience that unfolds with a symphony of wild flowers, fragrant violets, and lively red cherry notes. The palate reveals rich flavours, with the essence of black cherry, and dried herbs weaving together seamlessly. Sinewy tannins, expertly integrated French oak, and a thoughtful blending process result in a wine with a prolonged and seductive finish. While alluring in its youthful vibrancy, the wine possesses the potential to evolve into a hidden gem with age, acquiring additional layers of complexity over time.

13.5% ABV.
