Old World Sparklers

Region: Italy, Veneto

Grape variety: Chardonnay,  Trebbiano & Pinot Bianco

Tasting notes: In the aroma and delicate bouquet of wine is dominated by elegant fruit tones combined with a hint of lime, apple and white flowers. Exquisite, fresh taste of the wine leaves a long, pleasant, very delicate aftertaste.

VEGAN

Region: England

Grape variety: Chardonnay (100%)

Tasting notes: Neal Martin - 94 points: The 2015 Cuvée Boz, released at the end of February 2021, is 100% Chardonnay from the Jenkyn Place Vineyard in Hampshire. This has a light mousse and a greenish tint. The well defined, complex and harmonious nose unfolds to reveal green apples, crustaceans and subtle hints of lemon thyme. The palate is very well balanced and poised, quite weighty in the mouth, offering citrus peel, orange zest and faint traces of strawberry toward the elegant finish. This is an outstanding English sparkling wine from Dermot Sugrue, certainly one of the best that I have tasted.

Wine GB Trophy 2021 - 2021 Wine GB Gold

Medal & Boutique Producer of the Year

Region: England

Grape variety: Chardonnay (60%) & Pinot noir (40%)

Tasting notes: Neal Martin - 95 points - Vinous.com: The Multi-Vintage Cuvée Dr Brendan O’Regan, disgorged in February 2020, is based on 2016, with some reserve of the 2009 vintage, and it is in its second release. It is named after Dermot Sugrue’s grandmother’s brother, who essentially invented duty-free in Ireland. With a slightly higher dosage (9g/L), it presents a clean, precise, very complex bouquet of gunflint and smoke combined with orange pith and honeysuckle, all extremely well defined and displaying a little more spiciness than the regular cuvées. Possessed of wonderful depth and quite saline, it fans out brilliantly toward a finish that lingers in the mouth.

Awards: WineGB Trophy for Boutique Producer of the Year 2020 and 2021

Region: England

Grape variety: 50% Pinot Noir, 20% Pinot Meunier, 30% Chardonnay

Tasting notes: 95 Points - Anne Krebiehl MW - Falstaff, May 2022: Both orange peel and Red Delicious apple figure on the nose, alongside a subtle hint of fresh Viennoiserie that turns into shortcrust with more air. The palate strikes immediately with its effortlessness: there is that lovely balance between juicy freshness and mellow ripeness that you get in red apples. The slender body fizzes away with tiniest bubbles, lending creaminess and gentleness, expressing serenity, beauty and depth. Very elegant, lovely now, certain to evolve into a grandiose and gastronomic rosé.

Awards: WineGB Trophy for Boutique Producer of the Year 2020 and 2021

Region: England

Grape variety: Chardonnay (60%) & Pinot noir (40%)

Tasting notes: Anne Krebiehl MW for Falstaff - 94 points: A most subtle hint of petrichor precedes the creamy notions of raw, citrus-zest-flecked shortcrust pastry on the nose. The palate comes in with a serene litheness that is balanced and harmonious. There is something sleek, something weightless about this that nonetheless comes with resonance and depth. Bottle age will make this shine even more.

Tasting notes: Neal Martin - 94 points: 'This is just a killer English sparkling wine that is one of the most Champagne-like in style. It has a very intense, delineated bouquet of Granny Smith apple, crushed stone and sea cave aromas. The palate is exquisitely balanced with fine weight and density, yet paradoxically seems nimble and light on its feet. Razor-sharp acidity and just a light twist of sour lemon on the finish. This is outstanding.'
