Vibrant, elegant and refined.
Our non-vintage rosé is made up of 85% from the 2018 vintage, and the remainder from a reserve wine kept in a solera system dating back to 2011. The blend is 54% Chardonnay, 33% Pinot Noir and 13% Pinot Meunier. Aged on lees for over 36 months in its secondary fermentation.
Candover Brook's maiden release is a vivid pink hue with lively aromas of fresh strawberry, cranberry and toasted brioche. On the palate, creamy mouthfeel and a bold mousse are tempered by the wine’s mouth-watering acidity and vibrant purity of fruit.

What other people say...
"It's an accomplished rosé, with vibrant and perfumed, bright red berry fruit that bursts from the glass. On the evidence of this, Candover Brook is an exciting new name on the English wine scene.” Decanter Awards 2022, Silver
"This is one of the most stunning English rosés I have tasted and the super-smooth, incredibly pure fruit is mesmerising. I urge you to track down a bottle and raise as glass to this brave new label, as soon as you can!" Matthew Jukes for Vineyard magazine
Technical information
The grapes were hand harvested, whole bunch pressed and vinified in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks to retain their youthful fruit character. A fraction of the wine underwent malolactic fermentation. Base wines from the 2018 vintage were blended with 15% reserve wines from a solera dating back to 2011, resulting in additional aromatic complexity. After bottling, the wine was aged for a minimum of 36 months on lees. Following disgorgement, the wine received 9/l dosage.

We were delighted to serve Candover Brook Sparkling Rose to 140 appreciative guests at Rambert School’s 100th anniversary drinks reception. The lively, fruity, and intensely pink sparkling wine was the perfect accompaniment to our celebratory occasion. With the ever-growing popularity of English sparkling wine (wonderful for the carbon footprint) Candover Brook is a must.
