Sparkling Wine Flight     £14 60 ml x 3

Choose any three of our wines – a good way to get a sense of the wines to then choose your favourite to enjoy by the glass or bottle.

The wines are at their best served by the glass or bottle but the flight is a great way to get a sense of the wines to then choose your favourite. Due to the nature of the small pour the sparkling wines may begin to lose their fizz or chill served in this way. If you are one to linger over your wines we are happy to stagger the pour.
