Sophisticated sparkling rosé
Delicate fresh strawberry aromas followed by rich Pinot Noir notes. The wine has had over two and a half years maturation in the bottle to develop complex, toasty characters.
I feel very fortunate to be a winemaker in England. The industry here is still in its infancy compared to other more established regions and so with every vintage we discover more about our terroir.Josh Donaghay-Spire - Winemaker
When Josh Donaghay-Spire first started studying wine at the WSET he was amazed by the amount of complex chemistry behind it.
The more he learnt, the more he realised how much he didn't know. He found it very inspiring and his thirst for knowledge grew as he was getting dipper into his studies..
As a winemaker, he believes it is fundamental to understand the vineyards and the chemistry of the fruit and wines.
Freshness and vibrancy are key features he looks for in wines and Josh finds that English fruit really delivers on this, whether it be unique aromatic white wines, classic fizz, or a twist on a rich Chablis-esque Chardonnay.
Expect aromas of fresh strawberries, cherries and redcurrants with background notes of toasty shortbread. The palate is crisp and fresh, its fine mousse contributing to the light and effortless style. A great accompaniment to roast turkey with cranberry sauce. It will also complement fruit-based desserts.
