Choosing your wine
Blanc de Blancs
The perfect wine for those who love crisp, winter walks through the vines
Our Blanc de Blancs is 100% Chardonnay with refreshing tasting notes of apple and citrus fruits, making it the perfect wine for those who love to get outside in the winter months. It is light and crisp, and it pairs perfectly with canapés or seafood.
Brut
The perfect wine for those who prefer to be cosy beside the fireplace
Our Brut is full of depth and body, made from a blend of 50% Chardonnay, 30% Pinot Noir, and 20% Pinot Meunier grapes. While it is a dry sparkling wine, the notes are sweeter than our Blanc de Blancs with flavours of honey, biscuit, or brioche. Our Brut is a celebration drink, paired perfectly with a hearty roast dinner or winter evenings by the fire.
Rosé
The perfect wine for those who are first on the dance floor at the Christmas party
Our sparkling Rosé wine is fun and fruity, with aromas and notes of red berry fruits including strawberries, raspberries, and currants. It is blended with 20% Chardonnay, 60% Pinot Noir, and 30% Pinot Meunier. The subtle blush colour and delicate flavour mean our rosé is elegant yet memorable. It pairs perfectly with desserts like strawberry cheesecake, chocolate, or honey and cheese.
Blanc de Noir + Magnum
The perfect wine for those who love exclusivity
Our Blanc de Noir is perfect if you are looking to gift something a little more unique or dedicated this Christmas. It is our Limited Edition wine from the 2018 harvest made entirely from red grapes: 70% Pinot Noir, 30% Pinot Meunier. The aroma provides a bouquet of deep red berries with a biscuity undertone, setting the flavour profile somewhere between our Brut and Rosé.
If you or your recipient love our Blanc de Blancs, gift them an extra premium product with our 2015 magnum bottles. At Tinwood Estate, we only sell wine of the most recent vintage, so trying the 2015 Blanc de Blancs itself is completely special. On top of this, our magnum provides a serving, which equates to two bottles, wrapped in smart golden foil.
