LATEST SPARKLING WINE REVIEWS
Langham Blanc de Blancs 2017
So beautifully textured, ushered in by a soft, supple mousse and wild purity.
Woolton Chardonnay Pet-Nat 2020
A light off-dry sweetness that adds body and a light generosity compared to the sometimes bracing dryness of most Pét-Nat wines.
Wiston Blanc de Noir 2014
Peach, sweet red apple, orange skin and crisp almond pastry, as well as the fragrance of beautiful Burgundian oak.
LATEST STILL WINE REVIEWS
Oastbrook Chardonnay Oak 2020
Understated and elegant: there’s a bright nose of red apple and citrus zest, with a mineral, struck match note.
Lyme Bay Chardonnay 2020
A fusion of green apple, poached pear and peachy notes with an underlying bitter orange complexity.
Balfour Skye’s Chardonnay 2020
An understated white peach, crisp green apple, tingling citrus and mineral finish.
Some lovely picks from my 40th party by @lisawinetravel.
What a day celebrating @GreatBritWine 40th birthday. Tremendous wines, but 2002 Pol Roger

And 1992 @TorbreckBarossa were standouts for me
Great to taste the new vintage rosé from @AlburyVineyard too
#winewithfriends #drinkthegoodstuff
I turned 40 yesterday, and celebrated over the weekend with so many great friends, family and wines including wines from the four decades of my life... 82, 92, 02, 12. Obviously #EnglishWine featured strongly too, including @Nyetimber 92, @__H_R__ and @AlburyVineyard 12.
