Artelium Wine Estate Makers Rosé 2019, £42

A bright Pinot Noir-led rosé, this is hand-picked from vineyards in Sussex and Hampshire. Bringing fresh cranberry and redcurrant fruits alongside subtle spice and toasted brioche, it’s a lovely approachable style, reminiscent of the long and warm summer in which it was made.

Everflyht Single Estate Wylde, £22

Rooted from the chalk soils of Sussex, Wylde is a multi-vintage Charmat-method English sparkling wine that blends Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, Pinot Gris, and Chardonnay, offering a bright, contemporary expression of the region’s cool-climate fruit.

Halfpenny Estate Black Country Gold 2024, £12.50

Straw-coloured in the glass, with grapefruit and honeyed aromas, the sweetness carries on the palate, with apricots and dessert pears tickling the tastebuds. Enjoy with aromatic Asian and North African dishes, or along with mild to medium blue cheeses.

Lyme Bay Winery Sauvignon Blanc, £21.99

This newly-launched English white has a fresh yet concentrated flavour. Enjoy aromas of elderflower and greengage, with whitecurrant, gooseberry, and vibrant lime flavours. Lively but balanced, enjoy on its own, or it’s an excellent match for white fish and roast chicken.

Mudwall English Rosé 2023, £20.50

Harvested by hand in September and October 2023, this blend of Pinot Noir, Meunier and Bacchus has been created by Owen Elias, one of England’s finest wine-makers. Bright and refreshing, it has hints of whitecurrant, almond, hawthorn ,and gorse flowers, with a lingering rose and herbal finish.

Roebuck Estates’ Rosé de Noirs 2019, £42

A refined English sparkling rosé, we think this is perfectly suited to Summer’s sense of renewal and celebration. On the palate, it delivers flavours of ripe red berries, balanced by a freshness that keeps every sip lively. Ideal with lobster, seafood, and game, it also works especially well with the delicate flavours and silky texture of sushi.

Wyfold Vineyard English Sparkling Rosé 2020, £38

Former winner of both IWC and IWSC Best English Sparkling rosé, this comes from vines grown on a two-hectare Oxfordshire estate, planted on fine gravel soils. It’s a fizz with lovely berry ripeness, complexity, and minerality – think tasting notes of strawberry and lemon.

Please drink responsibly.
