Bodegas Lustau Amontillado Los Arcos Solera Familiar NV (6 Bottles) Jerez, Spain

£159.00
by Bancroft Wines

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

During the early years, Bodegas Lustau operated as an ‘Almacenista’. The Lustau family began bottling their own sherries and exporting by 1950. In the 1980s they expanded their range and introduced the Almacenista range concept of buying and maturing casks from small bodegas to share excellent quality names and styles with enthusiasts around the world. Bodegas Lustau is considered a world-class benchmark for top-quality wines.

Aged for equal periods under “flor” and in contact with the oxygen, in Bodega Emperatriz Eugenia in Jerez de la Frontera. This dry Amontillado acquires a genuine, rich and nutty flavour through years of ageing. Amber in colour, with hazelnut aromas on the nose. Light, soft and round on the palate, with a long aftertaste.

18.5% ABV. Fortified.

Goodworth Brut Pinot Blend 2019 (6 Bottles) Andover, Hampshire, England

£221.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

This is a perfect and exact blend between Pinot Noir, chosen for its red fruits aroma, its body, depth of flavour and fullness, and Pinot Meunier, our favourite, for its aromatic sweetness, a lush fruitiness and the capacity to acquire the roundness of age comparatively rapidly. The Pinot Noir grape provides the back-bone of our wine, whilst the Pinot Meunier lends softeners and orchard fruit aromas. A beautifully rich golden colour as well as an intense nose with red fruit aromas, such as red cherry, cranberry and redcurrant, are enticing us to take a first sip. A hint of strawberry lingers in the background. A creamy, full mouthfeel contributes to a very long finish. Ideal served on its own as an aperitif or try it alongside a quiche Lorraine or Parma ham.

Oasthouse Estate Chardonnay (6 Bottles) Ashford, Kent, England

£118.00

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

A dry unoaked Chardonnay with flavours of citrus fruits and golden apple. It has a light lemon hue and balanced acidity, with secondary notes of white pepper spice and apricot kernel for a persistent medium finish.

Carr Taylor Demi Sec (6 Bottles), Hastings, East Sussex, England

£157.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

This wine has a gentle golden colour and a soft peachy nose with hints of apple and vanilla. The fresh fruit flavours have a subtle complexity and a luscious, sweet finish.

A rich velvety mouth feel and a creamy mousse crown this superior sparkling wine.
