The most wonderful time of the year is also one of the busiest. Tinsel to untangle, feasts to prepare, parties to plan, joy and happiness to spread… and, of course, gifts to buy. For the last of these, we can definitely play the role of Santa’s little helper. It’s always a treat to see a bottle-shaped gift under the tree with your name on the tag – and unwrapping it to find a premium English sparkling wine inside makes it all the more special. Here’s a rundown of the perfect Ridgeview gifts for loved ones, from those wine newbies to seasoned aficionados.
Our Signature range of sparkling wines are loved the world over, so they make a beautifully thoughtful gift for anyone just starting their wine adventure. These wines are a Great British success story – definitive proof that English sparkling wine is now the envy of every sparkling wine region, including Champagne. Why? Because they taste delicious.
Bloomsbury NV is arguably our most celebrated wine, famous for being served at Queen Elizabeth’s Diamond Jubilee. Crisp, fresh and golden, it’s arguably the hallmark English sparkling wine.
Food-friendly Cavendish NV is our traditional blend, making it a great choice for expanding the horizons of even the most ardent Champagne lover.
Fitzrovia Rosé NV is our Signature sparkling rosé and a wine that really comes into its own at this time of year. It’s a mouthful of moreish red fruits – wild strawberries, raspberries and redcurrants – washed in a cascade of fine sherbet bubbles. Perfect for fans of anything pink and fizzy.
It can be hard to choose something suitably special for the wine lover in your life. But if you really want to wow them, a bottle from our Limited Edition range is sure to raise not only a smile but also eyebrows.
Oak Reserve and Sparkling Red Reserve are unique pioneering wines, impeccably crafted and proudly different. The product of our Head Winemaker Simon Roberts’ love affair with esoteric oenology, they’re once-tasted-never-forgotten wines that will be warmly welcomed into any collection.
You could also impress with a terroir-driven vintage sparkling wine described by Matthew Jukes as a “Rock Star”. Our Blanc de Blancs is a wine made exclusively from Chardonnay grapes grown on our estate, and 2019 was a glorious year in our corner of Sussex. The result is a thrillingly complex wine with a “stadium-filling quality” and “utterly brilliant” flavours (Matthew Jukes again). As a gift, this is love in a bottle.
Then again, you may prefer to let us do the choosing for you. A gift membership to our exclusive OurView wine club comes with two six-bottle cases hand-picked by our Winemakers, alongside a Wise Men’s bounty of exclusive gifts, offers and Ridgeview experiences. Explore OurView gift membership here.
Enjoy special moments with those who matter most, with a winery tour and at tasting at Ridgeview. We’ll take you on a behind-the-scenes journey through our vineyard and winery, followed by a relaxed, guided tasting of our award-winning English sparkling wines.
Come together, celebrate and create lasting memories that will linger long after your tour ends.
