The English Wine Case

Description

Brightwell Sauvignon Blanc.
The zesty grapefruit and gooseberry flavours of Sauvignon Blanc are well represented in this delicious wine.

Chafor Chardonnay.
Intensely golden, complex and full-bodied with delicate aromas of soft ripe pineapple and papaya. Creamy with subtle layers of vanilla smokiness, this is an elegant wine with distinctly moreish qualities and a long balanced finish.

Welcombe Hills Twelth Night.
A double silver medal winner from the Wine GB Awards and the IEWA awards, this wine will not disappoint. A delicate blend of 80% Bacchus and 20% Sauvignon Blanc gives this wine a fresh slightly tropical nose with hints of grapefruit and lychee. The palate is dry with crisp citrus notes, gooseberry, white peach, green apple and honeysuckle.

Brightwell Oxford Regatta Red
 A versatile wine that drinks well on its own, or accompanying any food. Clean and smooth it will balance red meats or highly spiced foods such as Chinese and Thai dishes. A very clean, fully dry red wine, blended principally from Dornfelder grapes. A similar style to northern Italian red wines, it has a refreshing clarity and is redolent of English summer berries, cherries and damson and a long finish. Oak barrel aged, it has firm tannins, and is an outstanding example of the ever-improving quality now being achieved in English winemaking.

Halfpenny Green Penny Red.
A beautiful medium bodied red wine with tastes of ripe fruits. Perfect on it’s own or paired with game, red meats and particularly with strong cheese. Grape Variety Pinot Noir, Rondo, Regent

Chafor Vintage Cuvee 2014
A properly bottle aged sparkler from an excellent English vineyard. Lemon gold with spicy fruit and hints of peach. A fine mousse with prolonged undertones of honeyed fig, baked apple and toasted brioche.
