Yotes Court ‘Benie des Dieux’ Blanc de Blancs 2020 (6 Bottles) Maidstone, Kent, England

£217.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

Elegant, Traditional Method sparkling wine. Flaky Danish pastry on the nose with ripe orchard fruits and glazed apricot tart on the palate.

This elegant Traditional Method sparkling wine has seen nearly 3 years of lees ageing and careful use of batonage, developing aromas of flaky Danish pastry. The palate is full bodied with notes of ripe orchard fruits, glazed apricot tart and hints of summer herbs on the finish.

Food Pairing:
A chilled glass of Blanc de Blancs is traditionally enjoyed as an aperitif. However, its fresh acidity pairs well with light foods such as oysters, white fish and summer salads at a garden party.

Albourne Estate Red Pinot Noir 2019 (6 Bottles) Albourne, West Sussex, England

£130.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

This is our second vintage of Red Pinot Noir and displays a deeper, richer ruby colour and a more complex nose than our 2018 version. This is partly due to the vintage and partly due to increased use of the ‘saignee’ method during winemaking. The nose offers aromas of rich dark berries including black cherries backed by notes of cigarbox, black olives and dark chocolate. On the palate it delivers excellent body for a cool climate Pinot Noir with mature soft tannins, a balanced mouthfeel and a harmonious lingering finish. All of this wine has spent 12 months in a mix of new and old French oak barrels before being bottled by hand, unfined and unfiltered, under cork to allow gentle ageing.

Highly enjoyable with charcuteries cheese and nuts as an aperitif and great with a casserole or barbecued meats and vegetables.

Sandridge Barton Blanc de Noirs 2020 (6 Bottles) Stoke Gabriel, Devon, England

£276.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

This is the first sparkling wine in our Sandridge Barton range, and it has certainly hit the ground running, winning a 'Master' medal at the Global Sparkling Wine Awards 2023 and is one of only 7 wines to achieve this top award out of 230 entries.

Made with 100% Pinot Noir from the best parcels, it's fermented naturally with indigenous yeasts in second fill French oak barrels where it spends a further 10 months on gross lees. We bottled this wine for second fermentation in June 2021, where it spent a further 18 months on the lees in bottle. We disgorged this wine with no dosage added, so it comes in at 0 g/l of residual sugar.

Raspberry gold in colour, with delicate aromas of rhubarb, fresh orchard fruits and cooked apple. The palate is dry, with delicate tart red berry flavours and subtle autolytic characters of baked bread and puff pastry. This leads you into a long finish lifted by the ripe and fruit-driven acidity.
