Plumpton College, the Centre of Excellence in Wine Education for the United Kingdom, is proud to announce its latest release – Plumpton Estate Bacchus Reserve.

Plumpton Estate Bacchus Reserve (RRP £26.00) is exclusively crafted with hand-picked grapes from Plumpton College’s vineyard in East Sussex.  

The terroir provides the perfect surroundings for fruition with its sandstone, well-drained soil and hours of English summer daylight. 

Plumpton Estate Bacchus Reserve has an uplifting acidity with its intriguing flavour profile and long, lingering finish. The unique flavour profile of dried apricots, honeysuckle and snowball melon bring beautiful complexity combined with a soft, creamy palette.  

With its remarkable depth of flavour, Plumpton Estate Bacchus Reserve is an expressive English white wine which can confidently be enjoyed alone thanks to its nuanced flavour.

This fresh, fragrant wine also complements summer dishes such as grilled chicken, poached cod or a Mediterranean style salad.  

As well as savouring this new English white wine, Plumpton Estate Brut Rosé NV (RRP £27.00) – a light sparkling wine is also perfect for warmer months.

This small production cuvée is an elegant choice for outdoor gatherings, picnics and summer celebrations – delivering sophistication in every glass. 

The sparkling rosé is made using a traditional method of blending Pinot Meunier and Pinot, on lees in the bottle for at least two years.

Captivating from first glance, its eye-catching pink hue is an elegant result of an added splash of Pinot Noir.

This delicate touch not only enhances the sparkling wine’s visual appeal but contributes to its refined red berry character.  

Plumpton Estate Brut Rosé NV is a superb marriage of freshness and finesse with its dry, crisp acidity and persistent mouse. This irresistible sparkling rose has light, fruity notes of white peach and strawberry combined with a creamy brioche roundness.  

With its long, elegant finish, it’s delicious as an aperitif or paired with seafood (crab and oysters), smoked salmon and chocolate desserts with forest fruits or raspberries.
