Melbury Vale Midnight (6 Bottles) Shaftesbury, Dorset, England

£117.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

This aromatised wine is our Dorset answer to “port” style wines and is a favorite of ours on a chilly evening! The rosé base wine is Dorset grown TDA and Dornfelder grapes. We bump up the ABV of these wines by fortifying with a small amount of our wine based distilled spirit. We then blend with all natural extracts and pure sugar cane. Because of the slight fortification of this wine, it has a longer shelf life once opened. We recommend a bottle of our aromatised wine can stay open in the fridge for up to 2 weeks – but we don’t expect it to last that long! This amazingly rich, slightly sweetened wine is best served at room temp, curled up under a big blanket by a fire. It’s so delicious it will become your go-to winter warmer!

Furleigh Estate Blanc de Blancs 2017 (6 Bottles) Bridport, Dorset, England

£221.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

An elegant white sparkling wine with crystalline features. Beautiful pale lemon with lots of tiny bubbles.

It has attractive floral aromas of acacia, elderflower and citrus blossom along with Sicilian lemons and chalky minerality.

The palate is crisp, dry and exceedingly refreshing with flavours of freshly squeezed lemons, grapefruit, lemongrass and salty minerality on the finish. It shows very pure varietal expression with exquisitely refined structure and definite poise.

Perfect for celebrations, serve well-chilled as an aperitif alongside shellfish canapés such as oysters, mussels or cockles. Great with flat fish such as lemon sole véronique, turbot, brill or dabs. Also good with fresh ricotta and goats cheese, or asparagus tips dipped in lemon butter or hollandaise.
