And they know....Recently we’ve really raved about our Castelnau Champagne with all the gift sets and giant bottles! It really is an incredible champagne and those who have tried it will know it’s multiple levels above a Moët without being any more expensive!
However let’s talk about the epic English Sparklings available as alternatives for that all important bottle of Christmas bubbles!
From the left we have the creamy buttered popcorn aromas of the Corallian from Langham, in Dorset, who recently won Best Sparkling producer of 2020 (in the world!) the most “Champagne” like of the 3.
In the middle, a fun and fruity easy drinker from our favourite vineyard Astley Vineyard in Worcestershire. There’s a hint of sweetness here with the concept being a mix of Champagne quality with the drinkability of a Prosecco. (Top tip, it’s great with those nibbles just before the main feast!)
On the right, our most recent addition to our English sparkling range. The Dalwood Sparkling by Dalwood, in Devon (near Honiton) is a more serious sparkling but with fresher fruit notes leading to a spiced pear crumble finish. All those awards over the years though, it’s got to be considered one of the best of English!
Help us support English Vineyards this year and perhaps try something new this Christmas! All are available online at www.wine-hub.co.uk
Or pop in for a coffee whilst you have a closer look 👀

AFTER HUGE DELIBERATION..
We have decided not to provide food/lunch for tomorrow’s pick because of the COVID situation and sharing facilities!!
HOWEVER... if you wish to bring a picnic and socially distanced yourself in your group ... in the vineyard...we are perfectly happy to facilitate this!
We will still be providing tea, coffee, wine, beer and a toilet up there!
We have lots of pickers on this occasion ( being a Sunday pick) so feel free to back out if this isn’t for you.!!
Makes sense to me.
Pleased to announce that our 2019 Still and our 2017 Brut both won Silver medals in the INDEPENDENT ENGLISH WINE AWARDS 2020
By all accounts we were very close to a gold, but either way we are chuffed
2 wines made = 2 wines awarded good medals
DON’T FORGET
We could be harvesting this Sunday!!
Congratulations Mike and all the team! 🙌

Vineyard tour
In between the showers
Freya the new COO of the new venture they compiled whilst drinking a few glasses!!
Cheers guys .. Goid Fun
Leaf stripping .... this allows the fruit to dry out everyday
It also allows the sun on to the berries
Needs to be done but it’s a lonely job...

Happy to help .. let’s hope Gareth has a good season, works hard and does Dalwood Vineyard proud!🍷🍇🍾 We are delighted that Dalwood vineyard has taken up the chance to support Gareth Huskins, last season's winner of the 1st XV Most Improved Player award, with player sponsorship for the 2020/21 campaign.
➡ This season, Manor Park RFC has opened up player sponsorship opportunities for any of our signed up members for just £150. This money is 100% reinvested into a grassroots club that does not pay a penny to anybody; players, coaches or committee.
📧 Fancy sponsoring a player? Please inbox us for more information #WATMPB #ParkandProud
Here's hoping it's the start of a harmonious relationship between a rugby club and a vineyard... there's a partnership made in heaven!
