Spring Wines
Welcome to Lea & Sandeman, your go-to wine merchant in the UK for an exceptional selection of wines. Spring is here, and with it comes the perfect opportunity to indulge in some refreshingly aromatic wines. The season calls for light, fresh and juicy wines that perfectly complement the milder weather.
We have put together a selection of wines that are perfect for spring. From the Loire Valley to Santa Barbara, we've got an exquisite selection of wines that will tantalize your taste buds.
If you're looking for a red wine to enjoy during the season, the pert, crisp Chinon Cabernet franc from Bernard Baudry in the Loire is an excellent choice. With its aromas of red fruits and subtle hints of spice, it's perfect to enjoy with a grilled chicken or a hearty vegetarian meal.
For those who prefer white wine, our Soave Classico Montesei by Le Battistelle in Italy is a fantastic option. It's a light-bodied wine with refreshing acidity and hints of peach, pear and white flowers. It's perfect to enjoy with a seafood platter or a light salad.
If you're looking for a lighter red with a bit more bounce and sophistication, our old vine Brouilly from Domaine Chevalier-Métrat is the perfect choice. It's a medium-bodied red wine with aromas of black cherry and a subtle hint of liquorice. It pairs well with roast lamb or grilled pork.
If you're a fan of Pinot Noir, you won't want to miss Barda from Chacra, Argentina or Illahe Vineyards from Willamette Valley, Oregon - both moreish options that showcase the unique characteristics of their respective regions. Versatile wines that would pair well with a wide range of dishes, from grilled salmon to mushroom risotto.
And of course, we can't forget our house favourite Non-Vintage Champagne INSTANT PRÉSENT Blanc de Blancs Brut by Champagne Lancelot Pienne. This elegant Champagne is perfect for celebrating the arrival of spring or for toasting a special occasion.
At Lea & Sandeman, we are passionate about bringing you the best wines from around the world. Our selection of spring wines is carefully curated to provide you with the perfect accompaniment to the season.
