Nutbourne Sussex Reserve 2022 (6 Bottles) Pulborough, West Sussex, England

£87.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

A celebratory treat in a special edition elegant Magnum format.

This “field blend” wine showcases the unique terroir of Nutbourne - combining the soil, the geography and the climate of our special corner of West Sussex. There is no other wine in the world to replicate it.

With tremendous freshness and wild fruit flavours, it is crisp, dry, and aromatic, combining our old vine Riesling-style German varietals with Pinot Noir. Perfect to drink on its own but also has enough zing to stand up to spicy foods, lighter game birds or a wholesome fish pie.

The art: Just as Nutbourne wines are only made from grapes grown on the estate, every bottle features Bridget Gladwin’s paintings. This painting depicts the striking double-curtain trellising system in Winter. The individual vine stands as a sculpture, a thing of beauty and nobility in its own right.

Fourth Wave Wine Tread Softly Sauvignon Blanc (6 Bottles) Australia

£60.00
by Fourth Wave Wine

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

A lighter take on Sauvignon Blanc due to its earlier picked and moderate credentials but no less flavoursome. Aromatic nose of citrus, guava and passionfruit complexed with subtle dried herbs, light spice, and cleansing acidity. Elegant and refreshingly vibrant and long to finish. Pair with Goat’s cheese salad.

Tread Softly is a contemporary range of wines seeking to deliver delicious, intensely flavoured wines that are naturally medium weighted and moderate in alcohol. By using more sustainable vineyard management and wine-making techniques to ensure their production has had a minimal impact to the environment. Tread Softly is committed to reducing their carbon footprint and so commits to planting an Australian Native Tree for every case of 6 bottles sold.
