Furleigh Estate Eustacia Chardonnay (6 Bottles) Bridport, Dorset, England

£95.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

Wonderfully refreshing dry white with plenty of zest and backbone. It has a pale lemon hue with elegant legs. Delightful floral aromas of passionflower and lily marry honeydew melon and citrus lemon plus a touch of mandarin on the nose. The palate is dry with excellent acidity and a crisp mouthfeel which revives with every drop. Flavours of Sicilian lemon and yellow grapefruit mingle with braeburn and coxes apple and a hint of orange peel. It has a delicate saline character and great depth of flavour plus a lovely long finish.

Serve chilled with a seafood platter or shellfish. Also good with soused mackerel or roll-mops and especially with escabeche. Excellent with sushi but go easy on the wasabi. Try it with lemon sole and beurre blanc sauce garnished with samphire.

Albourne Estate Sussex Rosé 2023 (6 Bottles) Albourne, West Sussex, England

£118.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

With the palest of pink hues our Sussex Rosé is elegant, refreshing and very moreish. Made predominantly from Pinot Noir, our Provençal-style rosé delivers a fresh crisp minerally palate with delicate aromas of red summer fruits.

As ever, this wine is perfect for sipping or food matching. We recommend to drink chilled at around 6 – 8°C, preferably in the sunshine with friends!

Nutbourne Barrel Reserve 2019 (6 Bottles) Pulborough, West Sussex, England

£123.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

The winemaker’s special blend of Pinot Noir, Bacchus and Reichensteiner, naturally aged in oak barrels for 12 months. This is a limited edition dry white wine with a wonderful balance of aromatic fruit and complexity.

An excellent partner for Dover sole, turbot, or rich shellfish dishes such as scallop or lobster, this is a wine for a gourmand - England's answer to fine wine Burgundy.

The Art: Just as Nutbourne wines are only made from grapes grown on the estate, every bottle features Bridget Gladwin’s paintings. This piece is from a series of paintings worked on over a year, watching the vineyard change throughout the seasons. The bright green Spring growth and blue Summer skies contrast with the rich hues of Autumn and bare white of Winter.

Cape Mentelle Sixteen Hectares Cabernet Merlot (6 Bottles) Margaret River, Western Australia

£170.00
by Bancroft Wines

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

The Cape Mentelle journey is a true labour of love, born from humble beginnings in 1970 with just sixteen hectares of vines. Fast forward to today, and this iconic winery has carefully crafted each blend to showcase the unique characteristics of its terroir, resulting in wines that are both complex and approachable.

This stunning blend is a masterclass in harmony, with Cabernet Sauvignon taking centre stage and showcasing its signature dark fruits, bright cassis, and subtle hints of dried herbs.

The Merlot, meanwhile, brings a subtle yet luxurious touch, adding plush blue fruits and warmth to the mix. As the flavours meld together, the wine is beautifully supported by supple tannins and neatly integrated oak, creating a wonderful taste experience.

14.2% ABV & Vegan Friendly.
