Gusbourne Late Disgorged Blanc de Blancs 2013 (6 Bottles) Appledore, Kent, England

£630.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

The extended lees ageing of this wine brings with it a complexity and creamy mouthfeel, showing toasted brazil nut, freshly baked croissant and pastry along with bright citrus fruits, lemon sherbet, stone fruits and a striking mineral note.

Every year, we release a small number of late-disgorged wines. These are particularly luxurious and fine thanks to a special winemaking technique.

If you’re already familiar with Dom Perignon’s Plénitude or Bollinger’s RD, then you know the magical combination of freshness allied with delicious flavours of brioche, cream, butter and toast that characterise late-disgorged wines.

But how does this kind of ageing alchemy happen? The answer lies in the lees.

Stanlake Park Wine Estate Pinot Low – Pinot Noir Rosé (6 Bottles) Twyford, Berkshire, England

£71.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

Pinot Low gently captures the essence of our premium Pinot Noir Rosé wine, balancing taste with a lower alcohol content.

Our winemaker’s expertise, using earlier grape picking and lower extraction, has crafted a rosé that fits perfectly into the contemporary world of mindful drinking.

Light in alcohol but not in flavour, it shows delicate hints of red cherry, citrus and subtle mineral undertones, with a refreshing body. Zero sugar and vegan friendly.

Pinot Low is a delicious choice for any occasion, especially warm afternoons and fun picnics, allowing you to reduce your alcohol and calorie intake without sacrificing flavour.

This wine-based drink is made with early-picked Pinot Noir grapes, that have very low sugar levels and therefore, their final alcohol content is lower than usual. After crushing follows a short maceration on the skins to extract a delicate colour, with fermentation taking place at a cool temperature in stainless steel tanks to retain freshness.

The bottle has no plastic or metal capsule to avoid unnecessary packaging. A simpler look for a more sustainable future!

70% Pinot Noir and 30% Pinot Meunier. The two black grape varieties are pressed slowly and gently to draw out the distinctive colours and flavours. The result is a delicate, dry Rosé with a balanced floral character and complex notes of white peach and red berries.
