Celebrate the harvest season with Plumpton Estate Bacchus Reserve and the award-winning sparkling rosé

Plumpton College, the Centre of Excellence in Wine Education for the United Kingdom, is delighted to celebrate the Plumpton Estate Bacchus Reserve (RRP £26.00). Crafted from hand-picked grapes grown in the college’s East Sussex vineyards, this vintage expresses the true essence of the English countryside at harvest, when the vines yield their most treasured fruit.

Discover the New Plumpton Estate Bacchus Reserve

Produced with expert winemaking techniques and nurtured in the distinctive Sussex terroir, Plumpton Estate Bacchus Reserve is a refined English white wine that reflects the changing season. With its vibrant acidity and notes of dried apricots, honeysuckle and snowball melon, it delivers richness and depth, evoking the mellow golden tones of autumn.

This Bacchus Reserve is expressive enough to be enjoyed on its own but also makes a beautiful companion to autumnal dining. Pair it with roasted chicken, wild mushrooms, baked cod, or seasonal vegetable dishes such as butternut squash risotto. Its elegant finish and creamy palate make it a versatile choice for cosy evenings and festive gatherings.

Brut Rose

Celebrate with Plumpton Estate Brut Rosé NV

Alongside the Bacchus Reserve, Plumpton is also celebrating the award-winning Plumpton Estate Brut Rosé NV (RRP £27.00). While a summer favourite, this sparkling rosé also shines during autumn and the festive season. Its delicate pink hue and red berry character bring a sense of celebration to crisp autumn afternoons and seasonal feasts.

Made using the traditional method of blending Pinot Meunier and Pinot, and matured on lees in the bottle for at least two years, the Brut Rosé balances freshness with finesse. Expect dry, crisp acidity, subtle notes of white peach and strawberry, and a brioche-like roundness that complements both hearty and indulgent seasonal dishes. Pair with seafood, smoked salmon, roast duck, or desserts featuring autumn berries and dark chocolate.
