Melbury Vale Sparkling Wine Decadence (6 Bottles) Shaftesbury, Dorset, England
£180.00
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
A single vineyard blend of Seyval Blanc and Pinot Noir. On site at Melbury Vale Vineyard we have one block of established Seyval Blanc vines and one block of established Pinot Noir vines. While Pinot Noir is traditionally used in sparkling wine, Seyval Blanc has become a go-to English preference for sparkling production. Pinot Noir and Seyval Blanc at Melbury Vale ripen about the same time and are checked for sugar levels that are ideal for sparkling. This wine is a pale coral pink color with fine bubbles typical of a high quality English sparkling wine. On the nose there are aromas of fresh summer berries and meadow flowers, and on the palate there are bright notes of ripe strawberry, watermelon, and lime zest.
Food Pairings: Dorset shellfish dishes, smokey pulled pork, and with cake after tea.
About Melbury Vale Winery
Melbury Vale farm, situated near Melbury Mill and Cann Mill, was purchased by siblings Clare and Glynn in 2003. The 28-acre derelict farmland and buildings were lovingly restored and converted into a thriving agricultural business. A vineyard was planted in 2006 with the help of family and friends. Following the success of their first wine, which won a silver medal, Clare built a winery that was nominated for a design award and received government funding for its sustainable features.
Today, Clare runs the winery and vineyard business, which includes a cider orchard and two cedar lodges. The business has expanded to include wine distillation, producing liqueurs, brandy, and aromatised wines. The winery, built into the hillside, features sustainable design elements, such as a wildflower meadow roof and rainwater harvesting. The location offers stunning views, peaceful surroundings, and opportunities for stargazing, making it an ideal getaway for small groups of friends and family.

As its name suggests this wine is made of selected base wines from multiple vintages to produce an approachable and immediately enjoyable style. Others call this style ‘non-vintage’ – we just prefer the name ‘multi-vintage’! The blend of this wine will vary slightly each year in order to maintain a consistent style, but it will typically be a combination of Chardonnay, Pinot Blanc, Pinot Noir or Pinot Meunier and will undergo 3 years on-lees ageing.
Generous and soft on the palate, this wine is open and expressive, exhibiting delightful panettone-like aromas of sweet baked bread, dried apricots, nuts and candied citrus peels.

A versatile partner, it pairs perfectly with rosemary roast lamb, game dishes, grilled pork, roast salmon, or earthy mushroom-based cuisine.
