Introduction Champange from our friend Christina.

Lighter & leaner style of Rosé from what we normally drink. Soft mousse & micro oxidation. Strawberries light orange citrus, cherries, blackberry reduction, watermelon right on the rind, edgy, grainy chalkiness, grey volcanics. spot of saline/sea spray, baguette crust, pink rose pedals & flowers. The acidity is soft & splendid. Excellent finish that is well balanced, has nice tension, smartly polished & persists nicely for minutes.

Hard to beat and harder and harder to find these days. As always, great texture and creaminess frames by potent Bouzy fruit and richness.

Hell yes! Does not drink like most rosé champ., more texture, elegance, integrated red fruit profile. Beautiful color, heady nose, salivating acidity.

Sensational. An old-fashioned champagne made from Pinot Noir with skin contact, resulting in an onion skin colour and significant tannins. This is a serious pink wine with bubbles in it.

For the price, hard to find a better. Wild strawberries, rose water and precision.

100% Pinot Noir.

'Eye of the Partridge' is named as such because of the light orange/pink hue of the wine. Couldn't be more elegant. Bright red fruit drive the well-balanced acid with an undertone of delicate brioche.
