Spring is hopefully on its way, and what better way to raise a toast to St George this weekend than with a GREAT-VALUE bottle of English fizz in the sunshine (again we hope)!
Introducing the brand-new Bramble Hill sparkling rosé from Kent, which M&S think is the BEST-PRICED bottle of English sparkling wine you’ll find on the high street at just £16 a bottle!
Almost all English sparkling wines are made via the ‘traditional method’, meaning their bubbles are produced during a second fermentation in the bottle in which it is sold, just like Champagne and Cava. But our Bramble Hill is produced via the charmingly named ‘Charmat method’ where the wine gets its bubbles in a pressurised tank and is then bottled. The result is a very affordable rosé English fizz packed full of beautifully fresh red summer fruit flavours.
Nestled in the heart of the Kent countryside, Silverhand Estate crafts this easy-drinking pink bubbly exclusively for M&S using English-grown Bacchus, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier grapes. It’s perfect as an aperitif or enjoyed alfresco with picnic staples like sausages rolls and salads.
Dror Nativ, Senior Buyer for English wine at M&S, said: “English wine continues to be hugely popular at the moment, so it’s no surprise that we’ve seen sales rocket by nearly 40 per cent in the past 12 month as more shoppers than ever choose to drink local. From the best-priced English fizz on the high street to our new top-of-the-range Collection English sparkling wine by Hattingley, we now offer more than 15 different wines from vineyards in Kent, Surrey, Hampshire and East Sussex.“
