They are finally here! After a long wait we have English wines back in the shop! This time we have more than just a sparkling wine. We have a rosé, a white and a different sparkling wine!
Chapel Down English Rosé 2015 @ £12.95
From vineyards around Tenterden and Aylesford in Kent, where the temperate climate allows growth of the delicate Pinot Noir, alongside some hardier varieties that shrug off England's cooler days, to produce a vibrantly fruity wine. Dry and refreshing, and packed with English summer fruit character. Strawberry and redcurrant characters take centre stage, with crispy acidity providing a mouth-watering lift. Superb barbecue wine, especially if you're having prawns and rice salads.
Chapel Down Bacchus 2015 @ £12.95
Fresh, crisp and citrussy English white made from Bacchus. The Bacchus grape, named after the Roman God of wine, produces a fresh and crisp wine with excellent citrus fruit characters and a refreshing finish. Very fresh and grassy and ideal with fish and salads.
Chapel Down Black de Noirs 2009 @ £28.95
A rich sparkling wine made from Pinot Noir with aromas of ripe strawberries and cherries together with hints of brioche from extended ageing on lees. This one easily lives up to the quality of the french Champagne masters.
Come and give us a visit and grab a bottle if you've never tried English wine before, you really are missing out.
Cheers!
