WVV News: Sauvignon Blanc Launch
Cheers to a New Vintage!
While we know the heat can be a lot to handle, our vines are basking in the sunshine and hotter temperatures with flowering on fast forward this year. Traditionally vines in England flower around Wimbledon Tennis but over the last few years, flowering has been moving earlier as this year will be finished before a ball has been played. With fruit set looking good, it could turn out to be a bumper crop, but there is still a long way to go and many challenges to overcome on the way to harvest 2026.
To help beat the heat, we are starting to release some of our latest wines from the beautiful 2025 harvest beginning with crowd favourite, Sauvignon Blanc.
New Vintage Alert
Our 2021 Sauvignon Blanc helped put English still wines on the map after we took home the Global Wine Masters, Master Medal in 2022.
Continuing in the medal-winning tradition, our 2025 vintage has taken home a Silver Medal from both Decanter (91 points) and WineGB. More on our exciting medal wins for 2026 to come in our next newsletter.
As we roll out our new 2025 wines, we will also have to say goodbye to our 2022 Cotswold Classic sparkling wine. Another Silver Medal winner, if this is one of your favourites, we'd recommending ordering now while stocks last.
As always, we offer complimentary shipping on all orders over £150. Order your glass of English gold- and help beat the heat with a bit of fizz!
Cool off with the new Sauvignon
We are proud to release the newest vintage of our ever-popular Sauvignon Blanc. This vintage is dripping with notes of ripe gooseberries, followed by hints of elderflower, tropical fruits and a rich minerality. This concentrated expression of Sauvignon is Sancerre-esque as the clean, long finish will leave you wanting more. It pairs excellently with freshly-shucked oysters or a sunny afternoon on your terrace.
