A Royal toast to the Jubilee with an elegant British fizz 

What better way to celebrate the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee than with a glass of British fizz? Our selection includes, among others, the exceptional Gusbourne Estate Brut Reserve, £39.99, from Kent. Bright gold in colour, this blend highlights red fruit aromas of cherry and strawberry, which then develop into attractive fresh pastry notes with a touch of cinnamon and spice. 

 

For an exceptional wine from a smaller producer, this time in Devon, our Lyme Bay Brut Reserve, £22.49, is fruit driven with lemony notes and a creamy, mousse finish. 

A milestone such as a Platinum Jubilee surely deserves nothing but the best of British after all and at Mr & Mrs Fine Wine we are pleased to be able to support and stock a range of the finest!

British tipples

As we celebrate all things British and why not continue with a cocktail? Our Soho Street Cocktails, £28.99, are even better than that, they’re ready to go and just awaiting ice! For fans of fruity flavours our Passion Star and Raspberry Daiquiri are sure to be a hit and there’s even a reviving Espresso Martini to take your party from day to night. 

With party foods

If you’re anything like us, you will love nothing better than a glass of Champagne to mark the start of Spring or even the first meal alfresco - if the weather lives up! One of our favourites to get any party started is Delavenne Dom Basle Bouzy Brut Reserve Grand Cru, £39.99, with aromas of white, exotic and dried fruits and seductive volume and depth on the palate. You could enjoy this Champagne as an aperitif on a special occasion or even alongside a platter of seafood such as scallops, salmon vol au vents or a light creamy or vegetarian dish. 

Father's  Day

Gifts   

Just around the corner is Father’s Day and if your dad’s a tricky one to please with either a red or a white wine, why not go to town and treat him to a Mixed Case? A Mixed Case has a little bit of everything with wine styles from around the world – from the cherry red with dark plum and hints of chocolate – Murphy Vineyards Shiraz to the delicate, extra dry bubbles of the la Delizia Prosecco!

Or, if you’re dad loves his Gin how about a bottle of Tobermory Gin, £30.99? Reflecting the spirit of the Isle of Mull, its has a rich palate of hand-selected botanicals including juniper, tea, heather, elderflower and sweet orange peel. With a deliciously creamy mouthfeel, Tobermory Gin is luxurious in style so perfect for gifting this Father’s Day! There’s even a free glass available to keep your dad chic, while stocks last!
