£278.00
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
We have teamed up with Silver Circle Distillery again this year to create Y Gwyllgi, a Pinot Noir Gin that uses the beautiful leftover skin, pulp and seeds from the winemaking process combined with the wild flavours of foraged Wye Valley botanicals.
Named after a mythical beast the Gwyllgi, gwyll “twilight” + ci “dog”, who is said to appear as a frightful apparition of a Black Wolf with baleful breath and blazing red eyes.
About The Dell Vineyard
The Dell Vineyard is the passion project of husband-and-wife team Lucy and Dan. Their journey began in 2005 when they moved from Monmouthshire to Bristol for university. After marrying in 2013, they spent six months travelling the Southern Hemisphere, where their love for wine was born, planting the saeed of a dream to one day own a vineyard.
In 2021, inspired by a desire for change after Lucy’s frontline experience as an ICU nurse during the pandemic, they made that dream a reality. Within weeks, they began leasing the Pen-Y-Clawdd vineyard and prepared to plant their own vines on The Dell, land that has been in Dan’s family since the late 1800s.
Today, they cultivate nearly 10,000 vines across six acres, including Pinot Noir, Solaris, Souvignier Gris, Cabernet Noir, Pinot Meunier, Seyval Blanc, and Phoenix. The Dell’s name honours both the family’s heritage and the landscape—a peaceful, grassy hollow bordered by trees, with the seasonal Nant y Wilcae stream weaving through.
Their logo features Raglan Castle, a medieval fortress tied to the region’s historical wine trade. Its 15th-century owner, William Herbert, Earl of Pembroke, made his fortune importing Bordeaux wines, with cellars once filled with reds, whites, and claret—then crafted in a rosé style.
Rooted in history and fuelled by family passion, The Dell Vineyard is a tribute to the land, its legacy, and the joy of winemaking.

Albourne Estate Red Pinot Noir 2019 (6 Bottles) Albourne, West Sussex, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
This is our second vintage of Red Pinot Noir and displays a deeper, richer ruby colour and a more complex nose than our 2018 version. This is partly due to the vintage and partly due to increased use of the ‘saignee’ method during winemaking. The nose offers aromas of rich dark berries including black cherries backed by notes of cigarbox, black olives and dark chocolate. On the palate it delivers excellent body for a cool climate Pinot Noir with mature soft tannins, a balanced mouthfeel and a harmonious lingering finish. All of this wine has spent 12 months in a mix of new and old French oak barrels before being bottled by hand, unfined and unfiltered, under cork to allow gentle ageing.
Highly enjoyable with charcuteries cheese and nuts as an aperitif and great with a casserole or barbecued meats and vegetables.
Ashling Park Estate Pinot Noir (6 Bottles) Chichester, West Sussex, England

This Ruby red wine displays a vibrant deep red color with a delicate purple hue. On the nose, enticing aromas of Doris plum and a hint of cinnamon emerge, layered over a subtle smoky core.
The palate unfolds with flavors of red summer berries, complemented by intriguing notes of liquorice and lavender. A crisp acidity introduces the wine, leading to a medium-bodied profile with fine, silky tannins and a lingering finish of violets and ripe berries.
Best enjoyed slightly chilled, this versatile wine pairs beautifully with lamb, duck, pasta, pizza, or dishes featuring a touch of light 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

Biddenden Gribble Bridge Sparkling White 2018 (6 Bottles) Biddenden, Kent, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
Good structure with a clean finish and attractive bready, baked notes. Intense and supple, this is clean, fresh and has depth. Made by the traditional method with Pinot Noir, Reichensteiner and Scheurebe.
Pinot Noir is one of the primary varieties used in sparkling wine production. It prefers a cooler climate and needs to remain on the vine long enough to capture the aromatics and fruit flavors.
Black Chalk Classic Sparkling White 2021 (6 Bottles) Andover, Hampshire, England
UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED
A sophisticated blend of 50% Chardonnay, 38% Pinot Noir, and 12% Pinot Meunier, this wine embodies elegance and precision. The Chardonnay-led profile delivers a vibrant fruit focus, while a touch of malolactic fermentation adds a layer of richness and texture, perfectly balanced by the wine’s hallmark freshness.
On the palate, expect a textured and full-bodied experience, supported by bright acidity (8.5g/l) and subtle sweetness (5.4g/l residual sugar). The wine is aged for a minimum of 22 months on lees, enhancing complexity, with an additional 6 months on cork post-disgorgement to ensure perfect integration.
A versatile choice for any occasion. Enjoy as an aperitif with crisps and canapés, or elevate everyday dining by pairing with fried chicken. For a more refined match, complement its freshness and texture with shellfish such as oysters, crab, or prawns.
