Anthonij Rupert Wyne L’Ormarins MCC Brut NV (6 Bottles) Western Cape, South Africa
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
Anthonij Rupert Wyne was founded on the farm, L’Ormarins in Franschhoek. Originally owned by the late Anthonij Rupert, who passed away in 2001, the farm was eventually taken over by his brother Johann Rupert in 2003 and the brand named after him. It was Johann Rupert who constructed a state-of-theart winemaking facility, catapulting the farm into a prestigious wine estate. The focus is on terroir specific wines and therefore it would seem obvious that the brand is made up of an impressive portfolio of farms representing the best in grape producing locations. The portfolio is made up of L’Ormarins from Franschhoek, Rooderust from Darling, Riebeeksrivier from the Swartland and Altima from isolated Elandskloof. Each site offers optimum varietal specific growing conditions, allowing Anthonij Rupert Wyne to adhere to the requirements of their different brands.
A lively stream of fine bubbles lifts aromas of sherbet and lemon cream biscuits on the nose. On the palate, it is vibrant, fresh, and crisp, with the bright citrus flavours hinted at on the nose immediately coming through. Tangy lime and grapefruit are complemented by a marmalade twist, while subtle notes of apple and toast add complexity and depth. The wine is beautifully balanced, elegant, and composed, finishing with a smooth, dry conclusion.
12.5% ABV. Vegan Friendly.
Hattingley Valley Kings Rosé 2015 (6 Bottles) Alresford, Hampshire, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
Limited to only 1200 bottles on first release, the Kings Rosé 2015 is a rare gem within The Hattingley Portfolio.
Made from a small selection of the highest quality Pinots, only six barrels were selected out of approximately 200, for this super premium English sparkling.
Due to its high quality we only make the Kings Rosé in exceptional years for ripening, which means we won’t see another vintage until at least 2027 and only if the perfect conditions happen again (We’ve got our fingers crossed!).
The twin to our Kings Cuvée 2015, it has the same delicious depth and richness, with the delightful addition of fresh red fruits; summer raspberries, red apples and first-picked strawberries. Its elegant pale pink colour and fine persistent bubbles make it the perfect drink for celebrating the most special of occasions.
Pair with scones, jam and cream (in that order!) for an indulgent afternoon tea. Or as starter with parma ham, paté and other charcuterie (in any order you like!).
Suitable for vegans/vegetarians

Woodchester Valley Pinot Précoce (6 Bottles) Stroud, Gloucestershire, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
This early ripening version of the much loved Pinot Noir grape packs lots of flavour and elegance.
Rich, ripe red made from Pinot Précoce and Pinot Noir grapes. Smoky mulberries and black cherries on the nose with an explosion of creamy dark fruits on the palate. Very long and moreish wine which has good structure and depth. Toasted vanilla oak flavours linger on the palate. This would pair well with duck or pheasant dishes and a good soft gooey cheese.
Smith and Evans LD 2010 (6 Bottles) Langport, Somerset, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
Our first vintage in 2010 feels like yesterday and like a different world altogether. The nerves and anxiety of years of work and planning all coming down to a single day. Thirty or so virtual strangers turned up to pick coralled by our friend Celia Kozlowski. Little did we know that some of them would still be harvesting with us to this day!
We sold the vast majority of the wine years ago but we kept a few bottles on lees for 13 years. We always keep a some in the cellars for family occasions and have decided to put 50 out into the world for people that are interested in seeeing how this gem has developed. The LD stands for Late Disgorged - doing it this way preserves the freshness of the wine and indeed, these bottles are remarkable. They resemble a blanc de blancs in terms of its taste profile which is fresh and full of minerality with distinctive grapefruit citrus aromas that I can't say that we remember from it's first incarnation. It's a beautiful delicate wine that is testament to the quality of those young vines at Higher Plot.
