Kings Rosé 2015: The English Sparkling Wine That Everyone's Talking About
Our Kings Rosé has been having a bit of a moment recently, with new awards, press features, and tastings, gaining it both acclaim and attention in recent weeks. Of course, we’ve always known our Kings Rosé was rather special. Nevertheless, this newfound spotlight can only signify the impressive quality and development of this wine since its first release two years ago.
Defined by a generous bouquet of vibrant raspberries, crisp red apples and first-picked strawberries, combined with a hint of spice and buttery brioche, our Kings Rosé is wonderfully complex. Its delicate, finely beaded mousse brings delightful effervescence, with a flawless balance of fresh fruit and aged characters that weave together to create something rather special. Roger Jones from The Buyer magazine certainly thinks so, read on to hear what he thought of it, and order your bottle today!.
The Best of The Barrel
Made in limited quantities our prestige wines are hand-selected by our head winemaker Rob MacCulloch, where after rigorous taste tests, he chooses only the top six barrels of each, those which contain the most flavourful and high-quality juice. For our Kings Rosé, 1% of Pinot Noir Précoce, red juice is added to the blend to enhance the wine’s body and flavour and to give it its distinctive ethereal pink colour. Once bottled the wine spends over 6 years ageing on its lees, giving the blend further complexity and a wonderfully developed body and texture. Check out our tasting notes for more details on our Kings Rosé 2015.
2015 Vintage: Cool But Controlled
The 2015 growing season was a test of good site selection and our vineyard team did a wonderful job in challenging conditions, the summer was cooler than the previous year, particularly in August which is a crucial month for ripening our grapes. Fortunately, towards the end of the month, the sun did show its face, and by harvest, we were yielding super-ripe Pinots with wonderful flavours, good acidity and deep colours, and good vineyard sites produced some very fine Chardonnay as well.
The Rise of the Kings Rosé: Press and Accolades
Our prestige rosé has been gaining significant attention recently, with praise from critics and industry experts alike. Roger Jones of The Buyer magazine described his first time with the wine as "a beautiful experience," highlighting its flawless balance with rich Parisian brioche, vibrant raspberries, crisp red apples and wild strawberries. He also noted the wine's clean citrus character and lively freshness, describing the wine as both refined and memorable. Why not experience it for yourself—order today, while it lasts!
But, that’s not all. At the recent WineGB Trade and Press Tasting, our Kings Rosé 2015 continued to impress as many attendees who had tried the wine before noted how well it had developed in bottle over time, commending its complexity and how wonderfully it is drinking two years on, from its first release.
The recent commendations of our Kings Rosé 2015, only serve to highlight the wine's recent success following the 2024 awards season.

These accolades solidify our Kings Rosé as a standout prestige wine among the very best in the industry.
