930 Ackerman Tastemets Cabernet Franc Rose Brut 6.95
This is a delightful and very competitively priced pure Cabernet Franc cuve close rose sparkling
wine, with a lovely, romantic pink colour, fresh bubbles and good fruit flavour presented in a classic dry brut style. This wine has been selected by Amphora after a long search to find great value rose bubbles. It comes from the Loire Valley, which is a main centre of this grape, which flourishes in the local conditions there. Refreshing, colourful, exuberant and fun, here are pink bubbles for party time.
109 Comtesse d'Estabel Blanc Brut 7.80
Even the hardest brut champagne drinkers will be seduced by the Comtesse, who is unashamedly traditionelle. Lovely
on the tongue with a roundly balanced flavour, she is beautifully presented, is full of integrity and honesty, is superb value and is also a bundle of fun. She can be enjoyed daily, at breakfast and
before both luncheon and dinner, and if kept suitably cool, will perform superbly in punts, at the races, at parties and balls and at family picnics. Made by Gilles Canton.
112 Comtesse d'Estabel Rosé Brut 7.80
Introduced in November 2007, Gilles Canton’s superb sparkling rosé brut is absolutely delightful and fantastic at the price. It is a blend of Syrah, Grenache and Cinsault, which
is then vinified the same way as Champagne, by the methode traditionelle, to give a dry wine with plenty of red fruit character, tiny, lasting bubbles and a good, balanced length. This Comtesse blushes a little more than her blanc cousin, but she is every bit as much fun and even more romantic. It is hard to find a better rosé sparkliing wine of this quality at this price anywhere.
372 Mas de Daumas Gassac Rose Frizant 2005/6/7 10.80 Extraordinary cuve close sparkling rose made from Daumas
Gassac’s Cabernet Sauvignon grapes with great aromas. Sunday Times Magazine 23 June 07: “Wine snobs will hate this delightful, light, sweet, just 11.5% alcohol pink sparkler …the
rest of us will love it…this wine’s delicate, restrained raspberry scent and blackcurranty palate is great on its own but also…over strawberries.” The Mas de Daumas Gassac wines are in great demand around the world and are strictly allocated to selected vintners. Amphora is lucky to have been given a small allocation of bottles, which we are offering at a very competitive price.
935 Champagne Alexandre Bonnet Grande Reserve nv 18.50 A classic blend of the three great champagne grapes –
Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier, this is a super value luxury champagne. Our clients have repeatedly asked us to supply sparkling wine from the Champagne Region so we have spent months
selecting the right Champagne house to deliver the quality and value expected of Amphora. Selected by the prestigious Conran restaurants (who also supply the very rare Daumas Gassac Rose Frizant)
this is a very well balanced champagne with just the right mix of fruit and acidity. Elegantly presented, this is an affordable luxury wine.
