Sparkling Wine

Below is a selection of good quality sparkling wine from different regions. All have been selected for their great quality. Champagne has always been comparatively expensive and it has increased so much this year we find it difficult to justify it on a quality to price ratio. Our Champagne method vintage Cavas and Cremant de Limoux are delicious wines at less than half the price of their equivalent Champagnes. If you want premium image then Ca del Bosco Franciacorta is a great choice, in my opinion better than all the popular branded Champagnes and far more exclusive of course.

This Blanquette de Limoux Brut from Domaine Mayrac is superb and has become our biggest selling sparkling wine. Sulphite free and organically certified, this is a delicious dry sparkling wine.

Boplaas Sparkling Pinot Noir Rose 2022

Pinot Noir, hand harvested from a low yielding single vineyard. Boplaas only produce this wine in exceptional years.

It’s made via the tank method rather than fermented in bottle, and the juice is left on the lees in tank for six months before racking off and bottling to add complexity.

Pale salmon in colour. Red berry flavours on entry with a fine persistent mousse, gentle acidity, finishing bone dry. It’s delicious in the drier style as opposed to our Rose Cava from Dominio de la Vega which is sweeter on entry with a little more residual sugar. If you like your sparkling wines dry this is the Rose for you.

Cava No11 Rosado

Cava No11 Rosado Organic Brut Dominio de la Vega

This is a fantastic organic Rose Cava. Lovely strawberry flavours with a hint of sweetness, fine mousse then a nice dry finish.

Again nicely integrated natural acidity so none of that “burn” synonymous with cheap factory produced cavas! It is delicious and I expect it to be a big hit.

A blend of Macabeo and Xarel Lo from selected individual vineyards at altitude. Hand sorted etc and only the free run juice is used. Being a Reserva it has a minimum of 18 months bottle age, and being Brut Nature the tirage doesn’t have added sugar so this wine is fully fermented to result in a drier style on the finish.

dominio_de_la_vega_expression_cava_brut_reserva_2021

Variety 100% Macabeo from the La Vega vineyard, harvested by hand then hand sorted to select only the best grapes. Being a Cava it is produced via the traditional (Champagne) method of secondary fermentation in bottle. The resultant wine was aged on the lees in bottle for a minimum of 18 months qualifying it for “Reserva” status, which means creamier, fuller and more integrated in style – more the richer “Champagne” style than Prosecco.

This wine is an excellent alternative to Champagne and great value.

Domaine Mayrac Blanquette de Limoux Demi Sec is a delicious organic sparkling wine, very low in sulphites in the  “demi sec” style which means “half dry”. There’s just a touch of residual sugar with gentle natural acidity making this extremely drinkable. If you find some “Bruts” can dry the mouth or be too acidic this is the wine for you! As well as an aperitif it makes a good option to accompany dessert too.

Independent English Wine Awards – Silver Medal

A new biodynamic sparkling wine for us, from England!

This Laverstoke Farm 2015 Brut was made in the traditional Champagne method, with extensive lees ageing for four years. It is also made from the traditional Champagne grapes of course, in this case dominated by Pinot Noir which is how I personally prefer my vintage Champagnes.

It is excellent, easily as good as any vintage Champagne at this price point, Really fine mousse, big biscuity flavours, toasty with a long finish.

It’s also very natural being biodymically certified by Demeter, with the benefit of organic and biodynamic farming. As it’s a sparkling wine the naturally produced CO2 acts an antioxidant so it is very low sulphite too.

I strongly urge you to give ait a try and support our domestic wine industry!

A fantastic Spumante Rosato (used to be called Prosecco Rosato but they changed the rules so Prosecco is only white wine now) from Santa Margherita.

Very pale, with a fine persistent mousse. Lovely flavours and a gentle acidity with a long finish.

A worthy replacement for their limited edition “52” Spumante Rosato.
