£84.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

An exotic and sumptuous rosé, crafted from pinot noir and reichensteiner. Rose gold in colour, with aromas of fleshy stone fruits, cranberries and undertones of english hedgerows. On the palate, bursting with flavours of wild strawberries, ripe summer berries and a hint of rhubarb. A refreshingly crisp wine, with a mouth-tingling acidity, followed by a lengthy zesty finish.

Oatley Leonora’s 2018 (6 Bottles) Bridgwater, Somerset, England

£114.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

Lemons, limes and grapefruit with some minerality on the palate. Dry and complex.

Made with the rare Kernling grape, a variety related to Reisling and shares it's aging potential. Our Leonora's wines happily age for more than 10 years, developing honey and orange blossom.

The 2018 vintage is dry, complex and starting to develop the classic "petrol" aromas associated with good Reisling and the lemon/lime is evolving into pink grapefruit. Pairs well with anything you would squeeze lemon on (oysters, perhaps?).
