Fresh, zesty, and effortlessly drinkable

Charmat is a wine for enjoying now and whenever you want, made from a complex range of varieties, including sustainably grown PIWI grapes, and blended to perfection by winemaker Ben Witchell, a pioneer of this style in the UK.

Fermentation was cool and clean in stainless steel, using aromatic yeast strains. Blending is intrinsic to Charmat, with each variety contributing character and complexity. Finally, a second fermentation in Charmat tanks creates the soft, natural fizz and signature Flint vibrancy.

Delicious, vibrant and English. What’s not to like?

Tasting notes

Like a lazy stroll through a summer meadow, this expressive fizz bursts with lemon, pear and elderflower flavours, mouth-watering acidity and a crisp, refreshing finish.

Food Pairing

A perfect aperitif, but just as happy accompanying seafood, summer salads, or a chilled afternoon glass in the sunshine.

"Proudly fruit driven, this particular blend of aromatic varieties makes for a perky peach bomb whose pop will help you push on all the way to summer."

Anna Larkin

"The wine is beautifully balanced—fresh and fruity, yes, but with a restraint and elegance that’s rare in this style"

Georgie Kinsella, Brighton Wines
