These prices are offered due to the highly competitive positioning of the wines and represent exceptional value within the range. They are available strictly on a case basis—either as 6 bottles of sparkling wine or 12 bottles of still wine — from Sandridge Barton. However, flexibility remains for larger purchases, and orders can still be placed as a mixed selection of 12 bottles or more.

Appearance
A striking amber-orange hue, lightly hazy from its unfined, unfiltered nature. There’s a burnished copper glow in the glass, immediately signalling its skin-contact origins and textural intent.

Aroma
Expressive and beautifully untamed. Aromatics leap from the glass with ruby grapefruit, blood orange and citrus peel, layered with wild strawberry and a delicate floral lift. Subtle nuances of rooibos tea and dried herbs add complexity, while a faint earthy edge reflects its wild ferment character.

Palate
Textural, energetic and unapologetically characterful. The palate delivers a vibrant core of sour stone fruits, raspberry and pithy citrus, wrapped in a gentle grip of fine tannin from extended skin contact. Bright, taut acidity drives the wine, balancing its phenolic structure and giving precision. The finish is long, slightly saline and lightly spiced, with lingering citrus bitterness and mineral tension.

Food Pairing
A brilliantly versatile, food-driven wine. Pair with grilled mackerel, roast chicken with herbs, or charred Mediterranean vegetables. It excels alongside Middle Eastern dishes—think spiced lamb, tabbouleh or roasted aubergine—where its acidity and tannic grip cut through richness and spice. For something more indulgent, try with aged cheddar or washed-rind cheeses, where the wine’s texture and savoury edge truly shine.
