Lady Elizabeth
ENGLISH SPARKLING ROSÉ
‘Lady Elizabeth’ is our initial label, 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 36 months 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, a harmonious balance of acidity and a gentle soft mousse.
“Pure and sharply defined as a raspberry cut from crystal……..this 2016 is a pristine gem” @OLLYSMITH
Demi Sec
ENGLISH SPARKLING ROSÉ
Coolhurst proudly presents the first in our limited edition range: our 2016 Demi-Sec. This wine is verging on the unique being a traditional method vintage rosé demi-sec; we believe it to be the only one in the UK and we know of very few, if any in production, worldwide!
This lightly coloured English Sparkling Wine is 100% Pinot Noir and has been given an extended time on its lees. The fruit has plenty to say for itself, but the additional dosage takes it to a different place and adds a natural balanced fruit sweetness whilst maintaining proper tension and length.
“A wine to take you through the finest picnic you can muster, from the coronation chicken sandwiches to the strawberries and cream.” @SIX_ATMOSPHERES

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.

Welcome to Coolhurst Côtes de Provence
Coolhurst Côtes de Provence
ROSÉ WINE 2020
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.
