Roebuck Rosé de Noirs is a refined English sparkling wine, crafted with 9% of the wine aged in old Burgundy barrels for 3 months, imparting subtle complexity. Its delicate rose-pink colour is matched by an aromatic bouquet of ripe strawberries, raspberries, and white peach. The palate is expressive, offering ripe red berry flavours along with nuances of honeysuckle and a touch of almond. Beautifully balanced with a bright streak of acidity, it showcases a fine, persistent mousse and a long, elegant finish, making it a graceful and sophisticated expression of English sparkling.

Sourced from Roebucks own vineyards in West Sussex comprising of mainly loam and clay rich soils. Carefully selected bunches were handpicked into small buckets and then gently transferred into picking crates before being transported to the winery.
Carefully selected bunches were gently whole bunch pressed and partially fermented in old Burgundian barrels followed by a generous period of lees ageing in bottle for a minimum of 36 months. A splash of Pinot Précoce was added as a still red wine at disgorgement imparting a pretty rose-pink tone and attractive red berry notes on this wine.
