Coolhurst Papaiannou Chardonnay (6 Bottles) Horsham, West Sussex, England via Greece
UK MAINLAND DELIVERY INCLUDED
NECTAR FROM A DIFFERENT HECTARE
Papaioannou Chardonnay from Nemea! Well knock me down with a sledgehammer. Wow!
This delicious organic Chardonnay from Greece, was our first ever guest producer. Another example of how this magnificent grape can taste different (again) in another climate or from a different terroir. This has enough ‘classic chard’ to please traditionalists, but real intrigue via lemon and mountain herb notes to interest the keenest of inquisitive palettes. From France this would be twice the price…..
Limited quantities, come and get it.

An opulent still Chardonnay from a single-vineyard plot on our estate, Commanders Vineyard. This is an elegant wine with tropical fruit flavours, a mineral note and creamy, toasty character.
An opulent, fruit driven nose full of ripe pear, stone fruit and lemon peel, alongside sweet spice, vanilla and a delicate smoky note. On the palate, there’s lots of tropical fruits, fresh citrus, white peach and a salty mineral note. The wine is beautifully elegant and the mouthfeel is generous and creamy, with toasty, buttery characters leading to a freshness on the long, lingering finish.

Melbury Vale Midnight (6 Bottles) Shaftesbury, Dorset, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
This aromatised wine is our Dorset answer to “port” style wines and is a favorite of ours on a chilly evening! The rosé base wine is Dorset grown TDA and Dornfelder grapes. We bump up the ABV of these wines by fortifying with a small amount of our wine based distilled spirit. We then blend with all natural extracts and pure sugar cane. Because of the slight fortification of this wine, it has a longer shelf life once opened. We recommend a bottle of our aromatised wine can stay open in the fridge for up to 2 weeks – but we don’t expect it to last that long! This amazingly rich, slightly sweetened wine is best served at room temp, curled up under a big blanket by a fire. It’s so delicious it will become your go-to winter warmer!
Bluestone Saignee Rosé 2020 (6 Bottles) Cholderton, Wiltshire, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
Hand-picked into small 10kg crates. Whole cluster press. Fermentation: Inoculated, 10 days. Full MLF. Small component barrel fermented.
A blend of 60.5% Pinot Noir, 37% Chardonnay and 2.5% Pinot Meunier, made in the Saignée method, this intensely coloured wine is bled off following contact with the skins. Saignée sparkling rosés often have deep colours and powerful, complex flavour profiles.
The nose immediately draws you in, with wild strawberries and macerated red berry flavours that recall the very ripest red berries of the summer. There are also hints of cherry shortbread and winter spice.

Balfour Luke’s Pinot Noir 2025 (6 Bottles) Tonbridge, Kent, England
FREE SHIPPING ENGLAND WIDE
Classic cool climate Pinot Noir, delicately aromatic with Red berry fruits, cherry, raspberry and spicy vanilla with soft but firm tannins.
“This isn’t just very good English Pinot Noir it’s simply very good Pinot Noir” is how our Head Winemaker, Fergus Elias, described his newest vintage of Luke’s Pinot Noir, from the superb 2022 harvest.
Inspired by our home, with flavours reminiscent of English cherries and a touch of spice. Coming from vineyards planted specifically for the creation of English Pinot Noir, this wine is rich, ripe and structured.
With our estate’s combination of the prime Wealden clay vineyards, Burgundy clones and careful winemaking, our winemakers have built Balfour’s reputation for producing some of England’s finest red wines. And Luke’s Pinot Noir is a superb example of a style which is growing in reputation and drinking brilliantly right now.
Here’s three reasons to try our new Pinot Noir now:
1. Cool climate excellence: this style is closer to New World Pinot Noir, rather than traditional French examples, but still comes from Burgundy clones. It’s the best of both worlds.
2. Lightly oaked: with judicious use of French and American barrels to add a savoury complexity and depth
3. Very on-trend: English red wine is a really exciting frontier, and this is a critically acclaimed example which is even served in Michelin-starred restaurants.
Our pairing guide: This is a light, summer fruit flavoured red. Our winemaker recommends serving this lightly chilled (just 10 minutes in the fridge before uncorking). The fresh fruit flavours and low tannins mean it will complement, rather than overpower, delicate flavours – making it ideal with white meats, roast vegetables, mushrooms and even herby lamb. Ferg had it with a butterflied leg of lamb marinated in harissa and Moroccan spices cooked on the BBQ and can confirm this pairing is also quite good

Ashling Park Estate Blanc de Blancs (6 Bottles) Chichester, West Sussex, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
A sophisticated Blanc de Blancs with an elegant nose of fresh citrus, brioche, and white flowers. On the palate, vibrant notes of lime, marzipan, and almond meld seamlessly with delicate toasty nuances.
A subtle chalky minerality adds depth, while fine, persistent bubbles enhance its refined character. This wine offers a long, complex finish, making it a truly celebratory expression of elegance and craftsmanship.
Amber Valley Millstone Solaris 2023 (6 Bottles) Wessington, Derbyshire, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
This delightful single-varietal Solaris showcases the elegance of English winemaking. On the nose, it offers a vibrant bouquet of elderflower, freshly cut grass, and exotic lychee. The palate follows with juicy pineapple and lychee flavors, supported by a long, lingering finish that reveals subtle hints of hazelnut. A backbone of fresh, zesty acidity ensures perfect balance, making this wine both refreshing and expressive.
Comparable to a New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc in its crisp and clean style, this wine retains its distinct English charm, brimming with hedgerow floral notes. Approachable yet versatile, it is as enjoyable on its own as it is paired with food—a truly stunning choice for any occasion.
