The UK's first demi-sec sparkling wine. A classic off-dry fizz, brilliant on its own, or with a wide range of foods.

Aromas include a charming mix of fresh red fruits along with intriguing spice notes of anise and lavender. The palate has a creamy, round texture with refreshing redcurrant, raspberry and cherry flavours.

Westwell's Ortega Rose is fermented in stainless steel tanks at cool temperatures to retain freshness and purity. For this Rose we’ve co-fermented with ripe Regent to add notes of bright red crunchy fruit. It has a nose of wild strawberries and honeysuckle with flavours of redcurrants, bramble fruits and a twist of white pepper on the finish. Delicious on its own or with seafood, chargrilled fish, salads or light pasta dishes. Best served chilled (8-10C).

From an exceptional south-facing single vineyard set high on the North Downs. Without question the best still English wine I have tasted. It’s mouth-fillingly fine with rounded, supple peach-like fruit and an ever so slightly toasty, vanilla finish thanks to nine months in French oak. If you like serious white Burgundy or Chablis, you’ll love this.

Made from unusually old vines by the charming Charles Humphries. Fresh and nettly with good fruit and character.

Produced using traditional bottle fermentation with extended lees ageing, this blend of Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier and Chardonnay has additional reserve wines from previous vintages to add complexity and depth. The result is a wine which is full of ripe fruit flavours and aromas of toasted vanilla brioche with a deliciously long finish. For the label artwork, we've used images of prehistoric sea creatures called diatoms and coccoliths which make up the chalk in our soil - reflecting both our attention to detail and our pride in the Westwell terroir. A truly standout wine which is limited to just 500 bottles.

Winemaker Adrian Pike on the Blanc de Blancs 2013 "We took over Westwell in the summer of 2017. Having tasted through the sparkling wines which we had inherited (from previous owner and winemaker John Rowe), we realised that there were some real jewels amongst them. The 2013 Blanc de Blancs was one of the highlights - a pristine and elegant Chardonnay with the acidity for longevity. It’s a real celebration of Chardonnay and how it can develop with careful ageing". This wine really shows the potential for the site at Westwell where the vines are digging into the chalk slope of the North Downs.

Winemaker Adrian Pike commented on Ortega Skin Contact 2020 "The 2020 harvest was an interesting one. Yields were down but the flavours were up. As a result, we only have just over 1000 bottles produced of the 2020 Skin Contact. This year, it’s fantastically textural with a delicious intensity. It’s full of fruit in the mid palate and finishes with the signature Westwell orange peel and salinity". The Skin Contact cuvee demonstrates the adaptability of this variety (in some vintages Westwell can make up to 5 different styles with Ortega from the same block). 120 bottles from CWM. Be quick! Fermented on skins slowly using indigenous yeasts, then aged in old Burgundy barrels for 9 months before bottling - unfined & unfiltered.

Our Award Winning 2020 Vintage Chardonnay is an elegant English Dry White Wine combining notes of creamy apples and stone fruit with subtle creaminess of oak. A crisp and complex framework makes this wine an excellent match with food, and it also has the structure to support extended ageing. WineGB GOLD MEDAL WINNER.

The Classic Cuvee is a blend from the noble Champagne varieties Pinot Noir (81%) and Chardonnay (19%). The grapes were carefully hand-picked and whole-cluster pressed, with only the best cuttings going into the wine. After a slow, cold, natural settle, the juice was inoculated for primary fermentation, with a portion of the jiuce going into barrel to add complexity and mouthfeel. The wine was bottled for secondary fermentation the following spring and remained on-lees for a minimum of 24 months to develop the secondary yeast flavours, before being disgorged and given time under cork before release. The Classic Cuvée is an elegant sparkling wine, showing a depth of citrus and stone fruits flavours, along with the more complex secondary aromas of cooked apples, breadcrumbs, honey and almond.

A vibrant soft pink sparkling Rosé made from Pinot Noir grapes, boasting a bright, fruit-driven palate with a richness of honey and hints of brioche. Made by the assemblage method, which involves blending a small portion of Pinot Noir red wine with our Classic cuvee base wine.

A crisp, dry, fruit-driven white showing pear, grapefruit and lemon with notes of honeysuckle and English hedgerow on the nose. Supple roundness with a slight saline minerality gives a mouthwatering, refreshing finish.

With a pale salmon, Provencale hue, the Barons Lane Rose is packed full of summer fruits, red apple, white peach with a slight creaminess and a tart balanced finish. This corner of Essex is one of the warmest paces in the UK, and is also blessed with London Clay and areas of gravel left over from the retreating ice shelf some years back – both of which make for happy grapes. The acreage under vine is huge by UK standards. They have been selling grapes to larger, well-known and very commercial English wineries around England but are now determined to concentrate on their own production.

Quintessential English Bacchus with a twist of the new world, made with fruit from various vineyard locations on the estate, including some of the oldest vines in the country. Intensely aromatic with grapefruit, pear, peach, lime, and herbaceous vegetal notes of nettle and cut grass. rich flavoursome mouthfeel with slight savoury notes on the finish due to partial barrel fermentation.

Produced from their heritage vines planted in the 1970's, this Pinot Noir Rose 2021 is the epitome of elegance. Subtle, classy and well-structured with rhubarb and redcurrant on the nose leading on to strawberry pavlova, white currant, strawberry leaf and granite-like minerality on the finish.

Bolney Estate first planted vines in 1972 in a sheltered south-facing spot on the South Downs making them one of the pioneers of the English wine making scene. It is now run by three generations of the same family, has a brand new and state-of-the-art winery (which we were proud to see being opened by the Duchess of Cornwall a few years ago) and produces some of England's finest wines - as epitomised by this Pinot Noir dominated blend from their Foxhole Vineyard. The wine is a typically Champagne-esq blend of 60% Pinot Noir, 25% Pinot Meunier and 15% Chardonnay. The fruit is hand-picked, cool fermented and aged on the lees in bottle for two years before disgorgement. The result of this hard work is a ‘méthode traditionelle’ sparkling wine (ie made in the same way as Champagne) with complex aromas of apple and stone fruits combined with biscuity brioche notes. The Foxhole Vineyard Brut Reserve was specially blended for the Vindependent’s buying group and as such is exclusive to a small group of the UK’s finest independent wine merchants.

A certified organic London Dry style gin. Light and delicate, with a hint of citrus. Juniper and Coriander. Yet the secret lies in capturing the true, delicate and complex nature of the rose. They only use fresh (not dried or concentrated) organic David Austin rose petals in the distillation, to bring a bright, fresh and not at all confected florality.

The English sparkling wine that put English sparkling wine on the map. The first English fizz to exclusively use the traditional three champagne grapes: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier. Parker 91 "wafting from the glass with a pretty bouquet of citrus zest, elderflowers, green apple and very subtle autolytic top notes... pillowy, beautifully balanced, pinpoint mousse, ripe but racy acids and a nicely defined finish.” Jancis Robinson MW. 17.5 "Very frisky mousse! Sophisticated and, I have to admit, champagne-like nose. Lifted and long and very sophisticated. There are just SO many champagnes that are less impressive than this... intellectually stimulating. Wonderfully vibrant..."

Fantastic English fizz from a vineyard local to Cambridge. Fruity, fresh limes on the palate and delicate bubbles. Dermot Sugrue, famous for his award winning work at Nyetimber and Wiston handles the second fermentation with superb results.

A singly vineyard English sparkling wine from the masters.

Something of Pouilly-Fuisse in the style here, a banana-custard rich nose, but on the palate linear, mineral and refined. Elegant, broad and complex, so unlike other English chardonay. Super-premium estate sited in the warmest, driest corner of England, near the coast and Malden (of posh salt fame). This south-facing ridge enjoys an exceptionally long warm growing season - so rare in England. Our old friend John Atkinson, Master of Wine, who is an expert on cool-climate viticulture, is enthusiastically involved. Winemaker is Liam Idzikowski who boasts long experience in English wine-making; backed by owners the Bunker family, the winery is an astonishing no-expense-spared jewel in the crown for English wine.

A fine English take on Prosecco with the Bacchus offering lovely elderflower and gooseberry aroma and light frothy mousse and some residual sugar making it very easy on the palate.

Pelegrim means Pilgrim in middle English (circa 12th century) and recognises the history of our forbearers that walked the Pilgrim’s Way above our vineyard for centuries on their final leg to Canterbury. This wine replicates this tradition in how the grapes are grown, selected and fermented. The Pelegrim NV is a traditional bottle-fermented sparkling wine that is made from Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier and Chardonnay with reserve wines from previous vintages to give further complexity and a consistent extra dry non-vintage style. The wines are lees-aged in bottle for 36 months to give depth and biscuity aromas which only bottle-fermentation can deliver.

A really excellent example of Bacchus grape and how well suited it is to the English climate. Lowish alcohol but loads of bright citrus flavours and great length too. A summery joy.

Elegant with aromas of apple,strrawberry and freshly baked bread together with hints of raspberry on the palate and fine persistent bubbles.

Clearly England's no. 1 fizz. Mature and toasty. In a handy half-bottle size.

Tom Stevenson “If not for Nyetimber, there would be no English sparkling wine industry today – only a few crude fizzy wines made from hybrid grapes...”

Clearly England's no. 1 fizz. Mature and toasty.

What could be better than a bottle England's finest Fizz? A Magnum! Even yet better still: A Magnum at a crazy price, only £70 (Xmas 2022) - a splendidly small price for an impressive serving of sparkling joy. First and still best: the English sparkling wine that put English sparkling wine on the map. Jancis Robinson OBE MW. 17.5/20 "Very frisky mousse!
