The Wine
Bassist in top Britpop band Blur, Alex James had a passion for food and wanted to make a difference. He moved to a farmhouse in the Cotswolds and began to make artisan cheeses. Then, delicious local tipples – first Britpop cider and now two exceptional English sparkling wines. He's joined forces with an award-winning estate and the outcome is Britbop Brut and Rosé. The pink is a classic blend of Champagne grapes – Chardonnay, with Pinot Noir and a little Meunier – all grown on chalky soils for finesse and freshness. Aged on lees, with the secondary fermentation in bottle, just like Champagne, it has floral, red berry notes and a biscuity complexity. Chill down and enjoy – it’s a great fizz for picnics, parties, fun and celebration.
"A home-grown, world beater, perfect for good times, any time!"
