Sandridge Barton Pinot Noir 2022 (6 Bottles) Stoke Gabriel, Devon, England

£210.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

This distinct Pinot Noir is the follow-up to the 2020 vintage which was awarded the Best Red Wine, Best Still Wine and Best Regional Wine in the UK at the 2023 WineGB awards. Hailing from the flawless 2022 vintage, this follow has already won Gold at the WineGB Awards before it was even released.

2022 was a long, dry and hot summer, with perfect ripening conditions here in our South Devon vineyard, with harvest taking place from mid-September to mid-October. All grapes were hand-picked and bought back to the winery, where we cold macerated them for two days, with 35% whole bunch and the rest crushed and de-stemmed before spontaneously fermenting on skins for 10-days. 35% of the wine was then matured in third and fourth-fill French oak barrels for between 18-24 months and some remained in stainless steel and was bottled without filtration.

The nose has elevated red fruit, wild strawberry, red currant, and cherry with a touch of spice and subtle oak. The palate is bright and concentrated with more red berries, that are then supported with a mouth-watering acidity, soft tannins and a long and complex finish.

Cotswold Hills Still Rosé 2023 (6 Bottles) Cirencester, Gloucestershire, England

£110.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

A delicious well balanced rose, with aromas of cut grass and floral notes, which has summer fruit flavours and a hint of lychee.

Blackbook “I’d Rather be a Rebel” Rosé 2021 (6 Bottles) Battersea, London, England

£135.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

Our rosé is made from pinot noir grapes sourced from Clayhill Vineyard in nearby Essex. The grapes are hand-picked into small crates then travel the short distance to our winery in Battersea. After a short cold soak, the grapes are pressed and fermented in old French oak.

The wine spends a further 8 months on lees in tank and barrel and 1 year in bottle prior to release. The result is an expressive and textured rosé with elements of strawberries and cream and ripe red cherry.

Nutbourne Pinot Noir 2020 (6 Bottles) Pulborough, West Sussex, England

£123.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

A limited edition still wine made from 100% Pinot Noir. This is a youthful and fruity red, with ample black cherry and plum, rounded out with some gentle spice. A portion of this wine was aged in French oak for six months to add depth to the lighter Burgundy style.

Perfect for your Sunday roast and festive celebrations, it pairs beautifully with rosemary roasted lamb, or venison with cranberries.

The art: Just as Nutbourne wines are only made from grapes grown on the estate, every bottle features Bridget Gladwin’s paintings. This triptych depicts a series of autobiographical still lives, featuring objects of personal history – be they sentimental, meaningful or frivolous.
