Sandridge Barton Don’t Feed the Ponies Billy 2023 (6 Bottles) Stoke Gabriel, Devon, England

£129.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

A super light red wine with aromas of tart red berries, red apple and blackcurrant. The palate is light and delicate with flavours of sour cherry and cranberry and supported by a focused acidity and low to no tannin. Chill this bottle down and treat it like a cross between a red and rosé!

This wine is part of our new Don't Feed The Ponies range of more experimental wines, a reference to a campaign on Dartmoor National Park to discourage visitors from feeding the wild horses that roam there. The source of the River Dart begins way up in the heart of the moors, and it's the river that influences how our grapes grow.

by Wines by Cellars

A beautifully crafted sparkling wine, the Classic Cuvée captivates with its crisp precision, impressive persistence, and harmonious balance. While delightful to enjoy now, its structure hints at remarkable ageing potential.

This blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier—nurtured on the distinctive chalky soils of West Sussex—presents an enchanting sensory journey. Aromas of ripe stone fruit and delicate white flowers entice the nose, while its straw-gold hue and fine, energetic bubbles mesmerize the eye.

On the palate, expect a spellbinding interplay of vibrant fruit intensity and elegant chalky acidity, culminating in a finish that lingers with poise and finesse.

Domaine Chignard Fleurie Les Moriers 2022 (6 Bottles) Beaujolais, France

£165.00
by Bancroft Wines

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

Domaine Chignard farms 8 hectares of old vines in Fleurie, situated at the top of the hill sloping down to Moulin-àVent on pure granitic soils. The wines are elegant but serious and concentrated expressions of the terroir, none more so than the ‘Les Moriers’ lieu-dit. Cédric is following in his father’s footsteps and continuing the traditional Beaujolais way of farming and winemaking.

Bright, focused, and energetic, the fruit-filled Fleurie "Les Moriers" reflects its outstanding terroir with good concentration and a superb depth not usually found in the wines of Fleurie. It's very lush and vivid, tasting generous and fluid with great vibrancy The vines average 80 years old and 'Les Moriers' has been known as one of the legendary vineyards of the Beaujolais for a few hundred years and this is it's best example.

13.5% ABV.

Furleigh Estate White Pinot Noir 2023 (6 Bottles) Bridport, Dorset, England

£153.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

An unusual dry white wine with a sophisticated edge. Star-bright, medium intensity rose-gold with copper flashes.

Highly aromatic with orange blossom and tangerine peel plus attractive stone fruits including apricot and yellow nectarine. The palate is distinctly fruit-driven with vibrant flavours of greengage, quetsch and yellow plum, as well as top notes of kumquat and ruby grapefruit.

Uplifting freshness and juicy acidity combine to give a succulent mouth-watering wine with no trace of oak. Bursting with flavour, it combines rarity with food friendly versatility.

Serve chilled with mackerel escabeche or pickled herrings. Enjoy it with sea-trout served on a bed of fennel and ruby grapefruit. Delicious with sea bass drizzled with sauce vierge. Excellent with guinea-fowl and kumquat dressing, or turkey and cranberry sauce. Also pairs well with pork stuffed with apricots.
