English Sparkling: Ellercombe
Taking grapes from all over the English South Downs this Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Munier Ellercombe blend is exclusive to Sainsburys. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The word on the grapevine, although not confirmed, is that the winery partner involved could be Nyetimber, and I can see why. Fresh, tangy citrus, high acidity, rounded mouth with biscuit and brioche.Fresh and elegant. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
At £24 a bottle and super accessible in your local sainsburys store, Ellercombe is not a supermarket wine to be sniffed at.
Edit: This is now on offer (at time of writing) to £17 a bottle...snap up NOW.
