Burn Valley Vineyard Schonburger 2023 (6 Bottles) Fakenham, Norfolk

£126.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

Following on from the popularity of the previous vintage, we have produced our still Schonburger once again; this time with an added twist - grape skin contact was used to add further intensity. Fermented in stainless steel, aromas of lychee and rose petal with hints of ginger. Tropical fruits shine on the palate with a dry finish and perfect for Asian style foods. 11.5% - under cork

Smith and Evans LD 2010 (6 Bottles) Langport, Somerset, England

£270.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

Our first vintage in 2010 feels like yesterday and like a different world altogether. The nerves and anxiety of years of work and planning all coming down to a single day. Thirty or so virtual strangers turned up to pick coralled by our friend Celia Kozlowski. Little did we know that some of them would still be harvesting with us to this day!

We sold the vast majority of the wine years ago but we kept a few bottles on lees for 13 years. We always keep a some in the cellars for family occasions and have decided to put 50 out into the world for people that are interested in seeeing how this gem has developed. The LD stands for Late Disgorged - doing it this way preserves the freshness of the wine and indeed, these bottles are remarkable. They resemble a blanc de blancs in terms of its taste profile which is fresh and full of minerality with distinctive grapefruit citrus aromas that I can't say that we remember from it's first incarnation. It's a beautiful delicate wine that is testament to the quality of those young vines at Higher Plot.

Simpsons The Roman Road Chardonnay 2022 (6 Bottles) Canterbury, Kent, England

£202.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

This is the seventh vintage of The Roman Road Chardonnay to be released from the Estate. Exuding a true sense of place, our Roman Road Chardonnay is elegant and pure, with a distinctive mineral quality that you would expect from fruit grown on the iconic chalk soils of the North Downs.

Coates and Seely Brut Reserve NV (6 Bottles) Whitchurch, Hampshire, England

£231.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

Non vintage English Sparkling Brut Reserve. Typically 2 ½ to 3 years on lees, blended with 2 to 3 prior years’ reserve wines. The wine is only released after a further 6-12 months on cork.

This elegant brut sparkling blend showcases a harmonious balance of flavours. The 40% Chardonnay provides a rich, creamy texture, while the 50% Pinot Noir adds depth and complexity. The 10% Pinot Meunier contributes a subtle fruitiness and delicate acidity. On the palate, expect notes of green apple, toasted brioche, and a hint of citrus, all wrapped up in a crisp, refreshing finish.
