What a ride this year has been.
We’re gobsmacked that Cuvée Dr Brendan O’Regan 2016 in magnum has been chosen as one of Vinous Top 100 Wines of 2025 – the first time a wine from England has ranked in this global list.
“If you have not tried English fizz yet, this magnum will show you that it’s a category deserving of your attention. This is a beautiful, polished offering from England’s Irish master, Dermot Sugrue. It’s what English sparkling wine is all about.”
2016 was a brilliant vintage for Jenkyn Place Vineyard, and I always knew that the outstanding, if small crop would produce a very special and age-worthy wine. We made just 240 magnums and, at last count, there are just over a dozen left in stock.
One for Christmas, perhaps? This year, next year, or in a decade to come, there’s absolutely no rush. But please do drink them – with gusto and shared among wine lovers, friends and family.
