LATEST SPARKLING WINE REVIEWS
Albourne Bacchus Frizzante 2018
A very pure, dry expression of Bacchus but with the added lift of the light bubbles.
Chapel Down Kit’s Coty Coeur de Cuvée 2014
WOTM May 2019 A celebration of English Chardonnay purity, and it comes with such welcoming texture and complexity.
Gusbourne Blanc de Blancs 2014
WOTM April 2019 A little nervy; tangy apple and vibrant citrus, but it integrates so brilliantly with the supple mousse.
LATEST STILL WINE REVIEWS

A punchy palate, packed full of zingy citrus fruit, with papaya and guava tropics.
Hush Heath Manor Pinot Noir 2017
A superbly balanced Pinot Noir from Hush Heath, with youthful red berry flavours and delicate textures.
Astley Late Harvest 2017
A highly aromatic dessert wine orange peel and lychee characteristics and thoughtful balance between sweetness and acidity.
