Col Fondo Prosecco undergoes secondary fermentation in bottle and isnt disgorged. The flavoursome leesy sediment dances on the bottom, hence col fondo, literally meaning from the bottom. This is how Italian prosecco used to be crafted before industrialisation turned it into mostly cheap fizz made in stainless steel tanks. This is complex, refreshing, lightly fizzy with plenty of acidity keeping it alive and kicking.

Pale yellow in colour this Blanc de Blancs has a remarkably fine and full mousse. The fruity bouquet shows peach and apricot notes. The palate is creamy and soft. The finish clean and zesty. The palate is creamy and soft. The finish clean and zesty. Maison Veuve Ambal was founded in the heart of Burgundy in 1898, by Veuve Marie Ambal, widow of a Parisian banker. Marie returned to Rully to join her brother, wine lover and wine broker, at the time "method traditionelle" was being introduced for sparkling wines. The wines immediately gained recognition, and her grandson Charles Roux Ambal, followed by his grandson and current President Eric Piffaut, have continued to build on Marie's philosophy of quality, and the combination of tradition and modernity which is the signature of Veuve Ambal. With over 200 hectares of vineyards across Burgundy, mainly planted to Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, Veuve Ambal remain leaders in the production of Cremant de Bourgogne today.

The Chardonnay grapes used to create Vintage Blanc de Blancs were picked, pressed and then fermented to retain intense fruit flavours. The resulting wine shows a bright straw colour with light green highlights and a beautiful bead. The fragrant bouquet is perfumed with lovely aromas of cream and peaches, with light suggestions of citrus and honeysuckle. The elegant palate is filled with peachy flavours and zesty lemon acidity, offering a silky mouthfeel and a clean finish. This lighter bodied Blanc de Blancs tastes excellent with sashimi, sushi, and foie gras terrine.

A wine of the heart! 2022 is only the second release, after 2018, of Barney’s Flanders’ Mornington Blanc de Noirs. When it comes to the world’s great sparkling wines, Flanders knows his onions; it’s no surprise that he turned to his top vineyard in Merricks as the source. With depth of flavour and freshness in mind, Garagiste’s harvest for the sparkling base takes place roughly two weeks before the Merricks vineyard table wines. In the shed, the fruit is slowly whole-bunch pressed directly to old barriques for a wild ferment without temperature control. Post-primary, it was kept on full solids for 10 months. Put to bottle in January 2023, the wine stayed on lees for 30 months and was disgorged in June 2025 with 3 g/l dosage. Wearing the lightest hint of colour, this is finely perfumed with a bright, red-fruited nose deliciously reminiscent of true Blanc de Noirs styles, along with the accompanying energising acidity, abundant mineral tones and a refreshing finish. Far from frivolous, it’s a perfect aperitif style. Future disgorgements will show more complexity; here and now, this is a terrific wine, with far more sophistication than you might expect at this price.
