LATEST SPARKLING WINE REVIEWS
Chapel Down Bacchus Sparkling 2018
An intense fusion of tropical fruit, zesty citrus fruits and vibrant tropics that is immediately Bacchus-like, with added bubbles.

A fusion of pear, elderflower, zesty lime and gooseberry, with a softer, riper mix of light peach and honeydew melon.
Albury Estate Prestige Cuvée 2014
A strikingly pure prestige cuvée, the purity of the ultra-low dosage lets the fruit do the talking.

English wine (courtesy of @DaneburyFizz), steak off the bbq, and Keira's first hot tub experience. I would say that is making the most of the sun this Saturday.
