Yotes Court ‘Loose Rein’ Pinot Gris 2022 (6 bottles) Maidstone, Kent, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
A plush, silky wine with aromas of spring flowers and dried mango with an apple crumble palate and marzipan finish.
This dry wine strikes the perfect balance between a rich Alsatian Pinot Gris and the lighter Pinot Grigios of Northern Italy to create a beautifully fresh, but succulent and flavourful wine. The wine has aromas of spring flowers, dried mango and apple crumble, with a silky texture and a rich marzipan finish. The plump and juicy mouthfeel is balanced with gentle notes of vanilla and almond from the use of French oak.
Food Pairing:
Try pairing this wine with Asian cuisine, particularly fatty salmon sashimi, or a pungent washed-rind cheese.
Camel Valley Pinot Noir Rosé Brut 2021 (6 Bottles) Bodmin, Cornwall, England
SHIPPING INCLUDED IN UK MAINLAND
Beautifully balanced light Pink traditional method sparkling wine with classic English Pinot character. Lovely floral and delicate strawberry fruit nose and crisp acidity
2017 vintage review in The Times by Jane Macquitty 'Bob and Sam make England’s best pink bubble in a pretty corner of the Cornish countryside. It’s constantly classy, champagne-method gem and bursts with zingy crushed-strawberry fruit. Wonder to the park with this and have a wonderful time. '
Described by Victoria Moore as ‘a triumph, it’s completely delicious – like a wild cherry blossom nose-kiss’. Jane Macquitty, the Times critic writes about the 2016 vintage: ‘Camel Valley’s strawberry scented Pinot noir rose Brut is ‘the best …’.
Praised by Matthew Jukes, English Wine Compendium Mail Weekend magazine "This is a phenomenal wine which is not only one of the finest rosés in the UK but also the world!"
Recommended by Saturday Kitchen’s Olly Smith and a strong pedigree: The 2010 vintage won a Decanter World Wine Award Gold medal, the UKVA Trophy for the best Sparkling Rose in England and was awarded first place in the MWs tasting of 90 English Sparkling wines in 2012. Judges included Jancis Robinson, Stephen Spurrier, Stephen Skelton, Susie Barry, Waitrose and M&S: 'Strawberry and raspberry nose, lovely acid backbone well balanced with the dosage'.
The 2008 and 2009 vintages were both outright winners of the Sparkling Rosé International trophy in Verona (Bollicini Del Mondo). Camel Valley 2009 Pinot Noir Rosé was crowned Sparkling Rosé World Champion ahead of Bollinger Champagne rosé and also won the International Wine Challenge Trophy. Awarded 95/100 points from Chair of Judges Tom Stevenson, editor of Christie's World Encyclopedia of Champagne and sparkling wine. Wrote Tom: ‘Sublime’ and ‘beautifully pale, delicate salmon-peach colour; lovely, delicately rich fruit’.
IWC Really individual English style in the best possible way. Delicate salmon pink colour, lovely floral and strawberry aromas, pure refreshing palate.
Dunesforde Still Pinot Gris 2022 (6 Bottles) York, North Yorkshire, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
This rich but easy drinking still white wine benefits from a wonderful variety of smooth orchard and citrus fruit flavours. This comes from the exceptional vintage of 2022, the first time we’ve been able to get the required ripeness in the fruit to make a still Pinot Gris to go alongside our iconic sparkling Pinot Gris. This still certainly does not disappoint.
Hanwell ‘Golden Age’ Chardonnay (6 Bottles) Hickling Pastures, Nottinghamshire, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
A fresh dry white, with nettle, elderflower and citrus notes dominant in a complex flavour profile.
This wine is a pale golden colour with a complex profile. The nose is very aromatic with a herbaceous lead featuring nettles. The palate reflects the bouquet with added citrus and complex earthy notes. It has a long finish, in which a gentle sweetness emerges.
