Displaying a lovely, delicately pale pink colour this delightful rosé sparkling wine boasts a rich nose of ripe summer strawberries with a palate that begins with luxurious flavours of creamy red apple, leading to bright cranberry fruit and a fresh strawberry finish.

This wine would go down beautifully with a mackerel paté with blinis or with a good old fashioned Eton mess!

Just under half the grapes were crushed and destemmed and soaked for two hours prior to pressing to obtain the lovely light ‘salmon pink’ colour before fermentation in stainless steel tanks.

45% were whole bunch pressed with the base wine fermented and aged in used oak barrels. 5.5% came from our Pinot Noir Reserve ‘Solera’ to bring extra complexity. All batches went through malolactic fermentation.

It was bottled for secondary fermentation in July 2022 and matured on lees for over 24 months.

Grape Varieties: 92% Pinot Noir, 8% Pinot Meunier

WHAT THE CRITICS SAY

"Smashing fizz made by the Wagstaffs – we went to the same college at uni. So he must be good. Fresh, lively with a delicious savoury nuttiness."
