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.

Saffron Grange Blanc de Blancs 2021 (6 Bottles) Saffron Walden, Essex, England

£202.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

We are so thrilled to introduce our first ever Saffron Grange Blanc de Blancs; a style of wine that we personally love here and have wanted to showcase for a while. Due to a bumper crop of Chardonnay in 2021 we were able to finally achieve this and now it’s ready for you to get your hands on!

This signature vintage wine is made from 100% Chardonnay grapes, gently pressed and then aged for a minimum of 26 months in bottle and on its’ yeast lees and was disgorged in the summer to allow the wine to fully integrate before its release.

This Blanc de Blancs is abundant with orchard fruits, apple blossom and candied lemon on the nose with delicate yuzu, white peaches and a hint of flaky pastry on the palate. The finish is long with an elegant, flinty minerality.

We recommend enjoying this wine chilled on its own as an aperitif or, with seared scallops, creamy chicken cooked in a white wine sauce or with artisanal British cheeses.

Henners Gardner Street Rosé 2022 (6 Bottles) Herstmonceux, East Sussex, England

£132.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

Made using overnight maceration and gentle pressing to draw subtle colour from the grapes, here we have a modern marriage of bright Pinot Noir and plush Pinot Meunier. This wine has a seaside salinity and mandarin zest on the nose.

There's a beach pebble minerality texture to the palate along with a blood orange tang. Persistent zing and lift to the finish. Delicious!

Astley Severn Vale (6 Bottles) Stourport-on-Severn, Worcestershire, England

£109.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

An approachable and versatile house wine, Severn Vale delivers exceptional value and effortless charm, perfect for any occasion or meal pairing.

The wine opens with enticing aromas of elderflower, green apple, and fresh pear, leading to a palate bursting with juicy orchard fruits. Dry yet delightfully fruity, it boasts a medium (+) acidity that enhances its vibrant character and ripe, fleshy texture.

Ideal for unwinding after a long day or sharing with friends, Severn Vale 2022 pairs beautifully with curry, red meats, and cheese. An elegant choice that’s as much a treat for yourself as it is a thoughtful gift for others.
