Black Chalk Dancer in Pink Rosé (6 Bottles) Andover, Hampshire, England

£135.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

A sophisticated dry rosé crafted from 55% Pinot Noir, 29% Pinot Précoce, and 16% Pinot Gris. This blend, featuring a fine Pinot Noir 779 clone and whole-bunch pressed, co-fermented Pinot Précoce and Pinot Gris, delivers a harmonious balance of elegance and complexity. With an alcohol content of 12%, refreshing acidity at 5.5 g/l, and minimal sugar (<1.0 g/l), it presents a beautifully clean profile.

On the nose, Dancer in Pink entices with vibrant aromas of ripe strawberries and delicate cherry blossom. The palate reveals a luscious medley of red fruits, enhanced by a creamy texture from full malolactic fermentation. Laid-back and approachable, yet irresistibly moreish.

This versatile wine pairs wonderfully with a range of dishes. Enjoy it alongside smoked salmon and cream cheese bagels for a relaxed lunch, or chill it to perfection and serve with BBQ pork belly and a fresh summer Caesar salad. Perfect for any occasion.

Albourne Estate Sandstone Ridge Chardonnay 2022 (6 Bottles) Albourne, West Sussex, England

£118.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

A vibrant and youthful style of Chardonnay with minimal oak influence this wine is fresh and light with a pleasing texture on the palate and distinctive minerality.

With notable aromas of green apple and lemon zest on the nose, this is a classic example of a winemaking style with a ‘light oak touch’ in a cool-climate Chardonnay.

Delicious for food pairing and will age well. We suggest grilled fish, risottos and creamy pasta dishes.

Oastbrook Estate Pinot Blanc 2023 (6 Bottles) Robertsbridge, Kent, England

£119.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

The wine presents a lemon/light gold colour, a generous bouquet of ripe pear, peach, honeydew melon, grapefruit and hints quince followed by well-defined and complex fruit characteristics, fresh crisp acidity and minerality with plenty of character on the palate.

100% Alsatian Clone Pinot Blanc, the grapes from our vineyard were handpicked, and pressed in October. After low temperature fermentation to accentuate the thiol aromas the wine was left in tank over winter but not allowed to go to malolactic fermentation, the juice was very clear and required minimal fining and developed a splash of fruits and flavours of fruit with crispy acidity.
