Digby Vintage Reserve Brut Half Bottle 2013 (6 Bottles) Arundel, West Sussex, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
Half the wine – double the fun! Experience our trophy-winning flagship wine in miniature – the perfect stocking filler.
Dominated by Chardonnay grown on greensand, the smaller format of this wine retains the ‘sophisticated yet racy’ style that defines the Digby range. And you’ll notice different effects of ageing to the full-sized versions, with lovely rich, rounded flavours peeking through for a sumptuous sparkling treat.
WineGB named the larger bottle ‘Supreme Champion’ of 2023 and it is the official English sparkling of the House of Commons and the Royal Navy’s flagship, HMS Queen Elizabeth.
Welcombe Hills Ophelia Brut Rosé 2022 (6 Bottles) Stratford-upon-Avon, Warwickshire, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
Inviting nose with red berry fruit (strawberry and raspberry), quince, nectarine, and delicate floral aromas (white rose petal).
Fresh red berries on the palate alongside crisp red apple give an initially bright attack, with the suggestion of stone fruits giving a slighter rounder feel to the wine. Floral notes linger on the palate giving an elegant finish.
Would work great with crab and richer shellfish dishes in creamy sauces with plenty of depth. Lobster ravioli anyone?
Made with 100% Pinot Précoce
Furleigh Estate Everdene (6 Bottles) Bridport, Dorset, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
An off-dry English sparkling wine with refined fruit character. It has a pale golden hue with a steady stream of tiny bubbles.
Floral aromas of almond blossom and honeysuckle dance on the nose, with fragrant stone fruits including yellow nectarine and quince. It has the scent of summer meadows alongside attractive aromas of freshly baked shortbread and sweet brioche. The palate is off-dry with honeyed fruit, sweet apple compote and stewed medlar. It has a wonderful creamy mousse and a silky texture as smooth as panna cotta.
There are hints of frangipane and bakewell tart with a tasty layer of sweet almond paste running through it. It has balancing acidity to counteract the sweetness so the result is exquisitely off-dry with a lingering finish.
Perfect for celebrations such as christenings or a baby shower, or simply enjoy it with afternoon tea. Serve well-chilled in a flute alongside sweet canapés such as mini strawberry short-cake or individual fruit tarts. Also good with creamy fruit desserts such as summer trifle or panna cotta with a red berry coulis. Enjoy it with a classic cream tea with home-baked scones, lashings of clotted cream and luscious strawberry jam.
