Lady Elizabeth

ENGLISH SPARKLING ROSÉ 2015

‘Lady Elizabeth’ is our first release, so named in recognition of the daughter of the Marquess of Northampton who established the estate in West Sussex. As with all our output, this is a single vintage label where all of the wine is from the given year and the time on lees is carefully monitored in order to best display the nuances of the fruit.

Our rosé is 100% Pinot Noir and is disgorged after 2 years on its lees. This enables us to showcase the exuberance of the pinot’s fruit and we aim to produce a sublimely balanced dry sparkling wine with intense red fruit up front, not too much acidity and a gentle soft mousse.

Coolhurst Côtes de Provence 2018

ROSÉ WINE

With several years spent living on the doorstep of the Verdon, and having a cousin in the French wine trade, Provencal wine has long been held in great affection by the owners of Coolhurst.

For nearly twenty-five years we have held an annual ‘rosé taste-off’ where each guest would bring a wine for friendly amateur competition and the winner would be the summer party wine of choice for that year. Ultimately, we realised that could always win this challenge by producing our own Provence Rosé blended to the point of suiting all of the regular guests’ palates!

Thus, Coolhurst Cotes de Provence was born; which we now make in Brignoles in the Hautes Pays region. It’s certainly a crowd pleaser.
