Coolhurst Papaiannou Chardonnay (6 Bottles) Horsham, West Sussex, England via Greece

£89.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND DELIVERY INCLUDED

NECTAR FROM A DIFFERENT HECTARE

Papaioannou Chardonnay from Nemea! Well knock me down with a sledgehammer. Wow!

This delicious organic Chardonnay from Greece, was our first ever guest producer. Another example of how this magnificent grape can taste different (again) in another climate or from a different terroir. This has enough ‘classic chard’ to please traditionalists, but real intrigue via lemon and mountain herb notes to interest the keenest of inquisitive palettes. From France this would be twice the price…..

Limited quantities, come and get it.

Mountfield Classic Cuvée 2017 (6 Bottles) Robertsbridge, East Sussex, England

£216.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

This 100% Chardonnay sparkling wine presents a sophisticated balance of freshness and complexity. Crafted from a blend of predominantly 2016 vintage wine with 15% reserve Chardonnay from 2015, it exudes elegance.

On the nose, vibrant aromas of green apple, citrus zest, and a hint of toasted brioche entice the senses. The palate offers a delightful interplay of creamy texture and bright acidity, revealing layers of lemon curd, crisp pear, and subtle hazelnut. A refined minerality underpins the flavours, leading to a clean, enduring finish. Disgorged in February 2024, this wine showcases precision and artistry, making it a versatile choice for any occasion.

Hazel End Stackyard Sparkling Brut 2023 (6 Bottles) Bishop’s Stortford, Hertfordshire, England

£93.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

Hazel End's first sparkling wine made by the Charmat method - i.e. the second fermentation is in a tank instead of a bottle - which means it's quicker to make and easier on the pocket! Lots of fruit and crisp acidity.

"Bought a bottle, just opened it , Bravo ! Will have some more of that please ! " Chris Matthew's
