Melbury Vale Dawn (6 Bottles) Shaftesbury, Dorset, England

£81.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

This aromatised wine is our Dorset answer to Pimms! The white base wine is Dorset grown Phoenix grapes. We bump up the ABV of these wines by fortifying with a small amount of our wine based distilled spirit. We then blend with all natural extracts and pure sugar cane. Because of the slight fortification of this wine, it has a longer shelf life once opened. We recommend a bottle of our aromatised wine can stay open in the fridge for up to 2 weeks – but we don’t expect it to last that long! This amazingly flavorful, slightly sweetened wine is best served over ice. You can serve it in a pitcher with ice and garnish with fruit, or pour into a glass over ice and top with something fizzy. It’s so refreshing and yummy it’ll become your go to sunshine sipper!

Astley Freya Sparkling Sec (6 Bottles) Stourport-on-Severn, Worcestershire, England

, ,
£179.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

Freya is our delightfully drinkable sparkling wine. Made entirely from Kerner, this semi-sweet (13g/L), fruity sparkling wine is made for drinking with friends, or sharing at parties. Consistently a best seller, and always one of our favourite wines.

Made of: 100% Kerner

Tastes of: Ripe apple & shortbread

Sweetness: Semi sweet (13g/L - "Sec")

Acidity: High

Time on lees: 65 months/5 years

Disgorged: November 2024

Freya is a fun alternative to traditional sparkling wines. The joyous, but not sickly amount of residual sugar balances nicely against the naturally high acidity of Kerner. Interestingly, the residual sugar in this vintage is the result of the secondary fermentation (consistently) not finishing. The result is a fantastic, but casual sparkling wine that makes a great gift, or a delicious pairing with fruity desserts.

Dunesforde Queen of The North Sparkling Rosé 2020 (6 Bottles) York, North Yorkshire, England

£211.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

Dunesforde commissioned this Rosé in honour of Queen Cartimandua, Queen of the North (AD43-69). As leader of the largest and most northerly tribe in England, this powerful lady chose to form an alliance with the Roman invaders rather than be wiped out in futile battle. Made by traditional method using a blend of English Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, this vintage demonstrates lively fruits, subtle aromas and a crisp finish. Bold yet elegant, designed for a queen.
