Wiston Rosé

Beautiful English Rosé from the West Sussex South Downs. 

Produced from 96% Chardonnay and 4% Pinot Noir, made as a red wine in order to tinge the wine a beautiful coppery pink. Given that this is from fruit on chalk soils, it makes perfect sense to let the Chardonnay shine, such as it is so suited to the land. 

Bursting with aromatic notes of rhubarb, raspberry, strawberry, redcurrant as well as wild roses, lemon zest, and a touch of sherbet on the finish. It is a superbly elegant English sparkling wine with tiny, persistent bubbles and a refreshing acidity that calls you back for more.

Whole bunches of grapes are pressed through a basket press, (as used in Champagne), before fermenting in stainless steel, and resting on its lees ahead of bottling. After bottling, it is kept cool and capped for over two years before being disgorged.

Making great quality traditional method sparkling wine takes time and fastidious attention to detail.
