Oastbrook Estate Sparkling Cuveé 2014 (6 Bottles) Robertsbridge, Kent, England

, , ,
£200.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

This is a rich ripe, full and surprisingly generous Cuvee. Aromas of lemon, pear and apple and hedgerow flowers and hints of brioche. The palate is lovely, lush and elegant and the finish long and equally luscious with a hint of shortbread.

The grapes were pressed in a traditional Coquard press. After fermentation the base wines were kept separate and remained on their gross yeast lees over winter to develop additional complexity and richness. The base wines did not go through malolactic fermentation. Bottled in May 2014 the Cuvee was disgorged on September 2021 and has spent 87 months on the lees. This wine is a blend of 62% Chardonnay 21% Pinot Noir and 17% Pinot Meunier.

Balfour Albariño 2022 (6 Bottles) Tonbridge, Kent, England

£160.00
by Wines by Cellars

FREE SHIPPING ENGLAND WIDE

An English rarity that’s not to be missed, Balfour’s first ever Albariño release is a remarkable expression of the grape’s English potential. You’ll find a textbook zesty, citrus quality tempered by a slight saline minerality.

Described by noted wine writer, Henry Jefferies, as one of England’s “most important” wines, this new take on the Galician grape variety is not to be missed.

Three reasons to try;

1. Albariño is very much in vogue. It’s a superb alternative to fresh, fragrant styles of white wine – for those who love zesty Sauvignon Blanc, for instance.

2. Our first-ever release, this is a unique expression of the grape – and one of the only examples you’ll find in England. Taste a little bit of history.

3. Superb for summer; this is the perfect wine for the warmer months.

Winemaker’s Food Pairing: Fresh, fragrant and superb with seafood from our own shores – as a classic pairing. Or for those feeling a little more adventurous, this wine will pair will with the freshness of ceviche, and or the saltiness of feta. Alternatively, enjoy enjoy as an invigorating aperitif on a warm summer’s evening.
