Coddington Vineyard Ortega 2022 (6 Bottles) Ledbury, Herefordshire, England

£95.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

Ortega grapes ripen from the beginning of September – quite early for white grapes and therefore excellent in our rather damp Autumn climate.

It develops well in the bottle and produces wine of outstanding quality with a fine aroma reminiscent of peaches.

Not quite as dry as Bacchus, but not as sweet as Pinot.

Furleigh Estate White Pinot Noir 2023 (6 Bottles) Bridport, Dorset, England

£153.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

An unusual dry white wine with a sophisticated edge. Star-bright, medium intensity rose-gold with copper flashes.

Highly aromatic with orange blossom and tangerine peel plus attractive stone fruits including apricot and yellow nectarine. The palate is distinctly fruit-driven with vibrant flavours of greengage, quetsch and yellow plum, as well as top notes of kumquat and ruby grapefruit.

Uplifting freshness and juicy acidity combine to give a succulent mouth-watering wine with no trace of oak. Bursting with flavour, it combines rarity with food friendly versatility.

Serve chilled with mackerel escabeche or pickled herrings. Enjoy it with sea-trout served on a bed of fennel and ruby grapefruit. Delicious with sea bass drizzled with sauce vierge. Excellent with guinea-fowl and kumquat dressing, or turkey and cranberry sauce. Also pairs well with pork stuffed with apricots.

£327.00

The newest release, the 2016 vintage, continues this legacy, showcasing vibrant citrus notes, delicate brioche undertones, and a creamy texture that reflects Nyetimber’s unwavering commitment to quality. This Blanc de Blancs is a testament to the artistry and dedication behind every Nyetimber wine.

Nyetimber’s Blanc de Blancs, crafted exclusively from a single vintage, exemplifies the pure elegance of Chardonnay. As the first style produced by Nyetimber in the early 1990s, it heralded the estate's pioneering journey into exceptional English sparkling wine. Each bottle spends extended time on lees, developing exquisite complexity and finesse.
