Hello friends, and welcome once again, we hope that you are very well. We’re here with another diary entry for you on life and times at our Eridge vineyard, so make yourself comfortable, it’s fika time.
Our usual vineyard update this time will be remarkably brief, because everything has been put to sleep for Winter. The vines lost all of their leaves long ago, and the brown spindly vines stand to quiet attention, wating for their seasonal pruning which we will begin in January. But as you can see, the colours of the vineyard and the big skies above remain beautiful. You can see here frost on the ground, but we have not had much of that so far – this will change in January.
At this time of year the major newspapers and wine magazines all tend to print pieces recommending the best fizz for the festive season, and we have had the great thrill of appearing in not just one – but two of them.
Absolutely wonderful for our Sparkling Rosé 2019 to be included in a piece by Victoria Moore in The Telegraph entitled ‘The Best Champagne, English Sparkling Wine and other fizz for Christmas. “Pure Class” it concluded – you can read the full quote here. And in Decanter Magazine Sylia Wu named our Blanc de Blancs 2018 as one of the best English wines to try this Christmas, awarding a 93 point score.
A vintage sparkling wine should be an accompaniment to life’s most precious moments, elevating your celebrations, or making a special, personal and unique artisan gift, and our full exclusive range can be explored on our website.
Click through and immerse yourself – sophistication, elegance, and exceptional taste awaits. And until the end of December use the checkout code ‘XMASWINE10’ to secure 10% off all orders, as well as our usual complimentary shipping for orders over 6 bottles.
And finally we have another tempting Winter food pairing to suggest to you… this time our Sparkling Rosé 2019 served with Chicken au Champagne – the famous French fizz doing a great job as a cooking ingredient! It’s a perfect pairing as the rich, succulent Chicken au Champagne meets the effervescent, food friendly charm of our sparkling rosé. Head over to our website to download the recipe. Then give it a try and let us know what you think.
That is all for us this time, we wish you all a wonderful Christmas and New Year, and we will see you in 2024.
Skål! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year
Susanna & Douglas
