Meophams Phoenix Brut Rosé 2019 (6 Bottles) Meopham, Kent, England

£171.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

A lively and flirtatious sparkling rosé, crafted from pinot noir and reichensteiner. Beautiful pale salmon in colour, it glistens like the sunsets over our kentish vineyard. A seductively fragrant wine, expressing aromas of wild strawberries, ripe cherry and peach skin, with a hint of lush grassy englishness. The palate shows a generous flush of red apple, luscious strawberries and cherries, with a subtle creaminess on the finish.

Furleigh Estate Bacchus 10 (6 Bottles) Bridport, Dorset, England

£75.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

A vivacious and refreshing, lower alcohol crisp dry white wine with lots of zesty appeal. Pale lemon hue with a flash of green and a few legs. Aromatic floral notes of lemon blossom and elderflower combine with green apple, lemon zest and gooseberry. It also has herbaceous notes of lemongrass and a faint hint of nettle on the nose. The palate is dry with racy acidity and vibrant freshness. It has attractive citrus flavours of juicy grapefruit and tangy lime which mingle with ripe gooseberry and kiwi-fruit. Subtle grassy flavours and herbal notes of kaffir lime leaf and coriander combine with salty minerality on the crisp dry finish. It is light-bodied and refreshing with lower alcohol than most Bacchus and demonstrates uplifting lime acidity plus good length.

Best served chilled with shellfish such as steamed cockles and mussels. An ideal match for flat fish including plaice, lemon sole, brill or turbot served with salty samphire. Delicious paired with lemony asparagus. Also good with stir-fried vegetables seasoned with garlic, lemongrass, ginger and coriander. Enjoy it with raw fish such as tartare of salmon or Japanese sashimi with a dash of soy sauce. Or try it with Scandinavian pickled herrings.

Denbies Orange Solaris 2022 (6 Bottles) Dorking, Surrey, England

£129.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

A white wine made in the way of a red. Vibrant, yet mature on the nose, this wine delivers a nostalgic note of pineapple juice and a nod of guava. The tropical theme continues on the palate with sumptuous flavours of pomegranate and graceful hint of lychee.

Carr Taylor Ortega (6 Bottles), Hastings, East Sussex, England

£99.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

Ortega is an early ripening variety for the UK, which allows us to leave the grapes hanging on the vine as long as possible to achieve the optimum balance of fruit and acid. This is a dry, lightly oaked wine with subtle red apple and elderflower flavours and a hint of vanilla. The style is dry, alcohol 11% and its vegan friendly.
