Nutbourne Nutty Blush Pinot Noir 2018 (6 Bottles) Pulborough, West Sussex, England

£250.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

A fabulous Classic Method vintage sparkling rosé wine made from 100% Pinot Noir. From the wonderful hot Summer of 2018, this is a complex dry wine with balanced fruit, fine mousse and a delicious biscuity finish. A sensational limited edition, perfect for a very special celebration, it has the wonderful blush colour that the French describe as 'oeil de perdrix' - pink as a partridge eye!

Ideal as an aperitif, it also pairs well with oysters, smoked salmon, quail eggs and canapés.

The art: Just as Nutbourne wines are only made from grapes grown on the estate, every bottle features Bridget Gladwin’s paintings. This is an image of the vine in Winter.

The Grange The White From White 2018 (6 Bottles) Alresford, Hampshire, England

£258.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

Golden yellow in colour, the nose is luxuriously rich and toasty with aromas of baked orchard and citrus fruits, reminiscent of caramelised tarte tatin. The ripe chardonnay from the endless summer of 2018 blends seamlessly with autolytic pastry notes formed over 5 years of lees ageing in bottle. On the palate, the wine is full of ripe citrus fruit with a backbone of crisp, mineral acidity holding everything together.

A slight salinity and pithiness in the mouth makes this wine perfect for enjoying with seafood such as oysters or even good old fish and chips. Drink from now or leave under cork for the next couple of years and let the wine become even toastier and more opulent.

Tamar Valley Double White – Still White Wine 2023 (6 Bottles) Bere Alston, Devon, England

£97.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

Made from a blend of Madeleine Angevine and Bacchus grapes, grown in the Tamar Valley. The wine has hints of blossom, sherbet and elderflower, a floral and citrus finish with baked apple on the nose. This wine won a BRONZE at the Wine GB West awards in December 2024.

The Tamar Valley was famous for its market gardens and early flowering blooms, especially daffodils. The ‘double white’ was popular for its intense perfume and its creamy white petals.

Fruity / Crisp / Dry

Great with white meats, roasted root vegetables and goats’ cheeses
