Blowhorn Rosé

This is a serious Rosé

(49 customer reviews)

100% Pinot Noir Rosé

£29.00

There’s no point in calling ourselves the heretics if we do the same as everyone else, is there? So, we took a punt and decided to barrel ferment all of this (we’re big fans of Les Clans) Pinot Noir, also from Missing Gate vineyard.

There’s no clear glass bottles here getting rapidly damaged by light (sorry, it’s a thing); we are protecting this beauty in our signature black bottles; some people will hate that, but there are always ‘some people’. All old Burgundy barrels with a bit of lees stirring, this is a serious Rosé.

 

So, how does it taste? It has more depth to it than most Rosé wines and a better complexity. So can you drink it on its own? Hell yeah, but it’s also a winner for Sunday lunch or accompanying some Waygu beef on the BBQ. It turns out real men can drink Rosé after all. 

 

And there’s even a few more reviews…

 

Delicately floral and dangerously raw, infinitesimally layered and fragilely crystalline, unnervingly stern and fleetingly exotic, this is a kaleidoscopically fascinating wine, and the finish alone takes you into next week. I commend this wine to you. It is the most shocking and convincing debut launch of any English wine in my entire wine career’

Matthew Jukes, Vineyard Magazine May 2024

 

‘This is so, so good, I’d drink this over expensive Provence Rosé any day’

    Blowhorn by name, it also blew my horn off!
    Ultimately it’s as delicious as everything it is packaged in. With spring/summer on the way it’s time to stock up. Recommend!

    • Gareth Maxwell

      Graeme! A stonking review of both the inside and outside of our Blowhorn, you wait for the next rosé, it’s like this one’s older, bigger brother

    Simply excellent

    • Gareth Maxwell

      Simply grateful, thanks Jules…

    Living in the Crouch valley we were keen to see if it can produce a decent wine. We were not disappointed after trying this rose. We saw it first mentioned on Alan Titchmarsh’s Sunday morning show whose guests were impressed with it. As big fans of Provence rose we were very surprised at how this was as enjoyable if not a lot better in many instances. We thoroughly recommend it.

    • Gareth Maxwell

      Hi Rob & Jan, fantastic to see such a great review and glad that your neck of the woods is doing what its doing! Thanks for the kind words and support!

  4. Butch

    Unfortunately I can’t remember what it tasted like, but I do remember it was bloody good. Would drink again with pleasure.

    Hello English Rosé! As a South African wine admirer, I struggle to fall in love with English wine (which I find too acidic and often lacking depth in flavour). But… I’m also a marketer and perpetually willing to indulge in packaging and personality. Alongside quick delivery and a personal service, this wine is exquisite. It’s well balanced and packed with unexpected flavour that will carry me well into Summer. The packaging and service are really just supporting the star of the show – the wine. Keep it coming team!

    I’m someone who drinks rose wine all year round – but not that pale, floral stuff from SE France.
    This is an absolute banger with real depth and I think equal to any pinot noir rose that I’ve had .
    And as someone born in Kent that really is a compliment!

    • Gareth Maxwell

      So you’re the guy who drinks rosé all year round, please move to the front of the queue

  7. Paul Williams (verified owner)

    If rose wine from Provence is your thing, try this instead. It’s on another level for fruit, complexity and richness. The best rose wine I’ve ever had? Quite possibly.

    • Gareth Maxwell

      Can’t add much to that review really Paul, winner winner chicken dinner

  8. Andrew Steel (verified owner)

    A truly delicious rosé. A wonderfully round, fruity flavour, but not overly sweet, and with just enough aciditiy to leave a smooth, cleansing finish. Had it with a family meal, and, even with so many different tastes in wine gathered together, not a single dissenter was to be found at the table! Will definitely be ordering another when topping up the cellar.

    Whether you’re interested in seeing how far English wine has come, or are just looking for a genuinely tasty bottle, I would heartily recommend giving this a try!

    • Gareth Maxwell

      Andrew! What a review and great to see that it worked for everyone, get some more before it’s gone, all in the name of family harmony of course.

  9. Frank Schofield (verified owner)

    Fantastic. Paired with Wagyu steak on Valentine’s day. Very enjoyable and I will be ordering more.
