An award-winning English sparkling wine magnum
With an abundance of ripe red apples and pears, toasted hazelnuts, ginger and an underlying savoury minerality, this wine shows impressive depth and complexity, whilst retaining Wiston’s signature precision and elegance. Magnums have the capability to evolve slower and more delicately as well as deliver a broader and multi dimensional flavour spectrum. Perfect for celebrations but divine to open at dinner; we pair this with a show stopping beef wellington or truffle risotto.
In 2017, the year it was released, the 2013 was named the UK’s best sparkler in Decanter’s World Wine Awards and won the English Sparkling Wine trophy in the International Wine and Spirits Competition (IWSC) – the two market-defining competitions, and a recognition of the craftsmanship that went into producing this vintage.
Presented in a gift box, it drinks beautifully now and will age fantastically for years to come. To watch our winemaker Dermot Sugrue’s thoughts on this release, please visit our YouTube Channel: Wiston Estate Cuvée 2013 Magnum Tasting with Dermot, Head winemaker – YouTube
