Mountfield Classic Cuvée 2017 (6 Bottles) Robertsbridge, East Sussex, England

£216.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

This 100% Chardonnay sparkling wine presents a sophisticated balance of freshness and complexity. Crafted from a blend of predominantly 2016 vintage wine with 15% reserve Chardonnay from 2015, it exudes elegance.

On the nose, vibrant aromas of green apple, citrus zest, and a hint of toasted brioche entice the senses. The palate offers a delightful interplay of creamy texture and bright acidity, revealing layers of lemon curd, crisp pear, and subtle hazelnut. A refined minerality underpins the flavours, leading to a clean, enduring finish. Disgorged in February 2024, this wine showcases precision and artistry, making it a versatile choice for any occasion.

La Cantina Pizzolato Prosecco Superiore Docg Conegliano-Valdobbiadene Brut NV (6 Bottles) Veneto, Italy

£119.00
by Bancroft Wines

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

Settimo Pizzolato is the fifth generation of grower at the estate, a man full of charisma and innovative wisdom. The vines at the Pizzolato estate are on pebbly banks of river deposit, which are irrigated by concrete channels that were put in in the 1950s during Italy’s reconstruction post-war.  The wines always deliver simple, fresh flavours and they always deliver consistent results, whether you are enjoying them in New York, Tokyo or Seattle.

Bright colour, straw yellow with greenish reflections. nHarmonic aroma, fruity with notes of Renetta apple. Fresh, delicate, pleasantly elegant taste. Fine and persistent perlage.

11% ABV. Organic. Vegan Friendly.

Westwell Wine Ortega 2024 (6 Bottles) Westwell, Kent, England

£117.00

Free delivery with orders over £100

Our Ortega is a delicate, precisely made wine, which has been produced using a combination of natural and selected yeasts. This year’s vintage showcases everything we love about Ortega as a variety - a nose of tropical fruit and on the palate a herbal, saline finish.

Winemaker Adrian Pike explains "We were really proud of what we released last year, but quite simply, the 2023 vintage gave us riper fruit and that’s given all our releases a little more brightness and concentration of flavours, still with all the classic Westwell characteristics."

Westwell Ortega 2023 pairs perfectly with poultry, shellfish, soft cheeses and is also great on its own.

Closure: Screw Cap

Bottle Size: 75cl

Label: Features illustration of cut-through of Ortega vine stem under microscope.

Vegetarian & Vegan Designation: No animal products or derivatives have been used in the making of this wine.

Davenport Limney Estate White Blend 2019 (6 Bottles) Rotherfield, East Sussex, England

£177.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

The 2018 is made from 63% Chardonnay, 19% Pinot Noir and 18% Pinot Meunier. With 5 years maturing in the bottle on lees, it has plenty of yeast character combined with the suprisingly youthful fruit. This is a wine that is delicious now and will develop further over the long term.
