Whitehall Nethercote Hill 2020 (6 Bottles) Chippenham, Wiltshire, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
Soft on the palate with a rich ruby colour, this blend of Pinot Noir and Rondo combines the best characteristics of classic English red wines.
The summer of 2018 left a legacy long after the long, warm summer days had faded and was well suited to producing a great harvest for reds. Nethercote Hill 2020 is a true reflection of this fantastic harvest. With light tannings, Oak undertones and a deliciously rich cherry hint on the pallet.
This wine pairs perfectly with lamb and other red meats, as well a being the perfect accompaniment to a traditional cheese board, or simply enjoy on its own. Best served at room temperature.
Forty Hall Vineyard 2019 London Sparkling Brut (6 Bottles) Enfield, London, England

A golden hue reveals expressive aromas and defined flavours of citrus testiness, ripe orchard apples and Comice pears with a touch of fruit salad. Two years lees ageing lends further pastry and brioche notes to the mid palate. A delicious, elegant vintage with a rich softness and lingering finish.

Sugrue The Trouble With Dreams 2020 (6 Bottles) Haywards Heath, West Sussex, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
Wine is emotion. And every release of The Trouble with Dreams is emotional.
More than twelve years after what should have been the inaugural vintage of The Trouble with Dreams – from the vineyard that Dermot initially planted to make wine for the monastic order of Catholic priests at Storrington Priory – the 2020 vintage marks a new and significant development we could not be happier about.
The hopes of the 2008 vintage were dashed when virtually all the grapes were devoured overnight by birds ("That's the trouble with dreams", Father Paul McMahon demurred). However, exactly 10 miles west of Storrington a larger site of older vines on extremely chalky ground proffered their second crop... Coldharbour Vineyard has now featured in all of our vintages since 2019, and it's a vineyard that we have farmed ourselves since 2023.
Around a decade ago, the first Trouble with Dreams vintages went on sale – the 2009, 2010, and 2011 rapidly gaining critical acclaim as among the best sparkling wines in the UK. Every subsequent vintage has had big shoes to fill, and we’re delighted to say the 2020 lives up to expectations – while there's still mineral geology at its core, there's a little more richness to the fruit.
Sugrue Cuvée Boz Blanc de Blancs 2015 (6 Bottles) Haywards Heath, West Sussex, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
Barry Ben Sugrue – affectionately known as Boz – was Dermot’s brother, and this exceptional Blanc de Blancs is made in his memory. "The truth is there is no fitting tribute to someone like Boz… however, this is my attempt.”
Cuvée Boz – 100% Chardonnay – is from Coldharbour Vineyard in West Sussex, planted in 2005 on chalk and flint soil. Vinified in stainless steel and without any oak ageing, it shows remarkable clarity and freshness that shines through its flinty minerality and a long, toasty finish.

Henners Sauvignon Blanc (6 Bottles) Herstmonceux, East Sussex, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
Aromatic with classic Sauvignon aromas jumping out of the glass. Dry and flinty with mineral notes, combined with stone fruit, green apple, lime and herbs, it has toastiness on the palate which delivers a great body and length. It’s a wine that’s full of personality and complexity.
Sugrue Rosé Ex Machina 2018 (6 Bottles) Haywards Heath, West Sussex, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
Rosé Ex Machina isn't a wine we taste, rather, it's a wine we drink, consume, inhale – such is its opulence and indulgence. It looks, smells, tastes gorgeous. Nectar from the heavens; a wine from the sky.
Like Deus Ex Machina – an act of divine intervention in Greek tragedy that resolves the seemingly impossible on stage – Rosé Ex Machina was the result of our own much needed bolt from the blue in 2016: an initially difficult vintage saved by a glut of grapes from Jenkyn Place vineyard that were, quite literally, perfect.
Fortune struck again in 2018 – a year that wasn't just full of sunshine, but was relentlessly warm and bright from start to finish, without a puff of wind, and virtually no rain. That remarkable summer is evident at its core.
With four and a half years on lees, and another twelve months in bottle, the 2018 Rosé Ex Machina is serene and expansive. Blood orange one minute and wild raspberries the next; juicy and creamy, but with razor-sharp focus – it's tasting better than ever.
Gusbourne Commanders Vineyard Chardonnay 2022 (6 Bottles) Appledore, Kent, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
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.

Anthonij Rupert Wyne Protea Merlot 2022 (6 Bottles) Franschhoek, 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.
The nose is warm and inviting, with aromas of fruitcake, blackberries, subtle spice, oak, and a hint of dark chocolate. The same approachable charm carries through to the palate, offering a delightful blend of red and black fruits like plum, mulberry, and soft Agen prune, complemented by notes of Christmas cake and gentle spice. This wine feels as comforting as a favourite pair of slippers, yet it boasts a solid structure that supports the fruit, with oak and tannins seamlessly integrated for a balanced, succulent ripeness. A deeper layer of dark chocolate and cocoa adds depth, lifting the wine beyond the ordinary.

Shotley Vineyard Bacchus 2023 (6 Bottles) Ipswich, Suffolk, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
This single estate Bacchus is floral with notes of elderflower on the nose. It’s crisp on the palate with hints of gooseberry and lime. This wine pairs beautifully with chicken or seafood.
Bacchus is increasingly grown in England. The cooler climate in England means the grapes retain a higher acidity. Bacchus is sometimes called the ‘Sauvignon Blanc of the UK’.
