A HEREFORDSHIRE vineyard has launched an English sparkling rosé.

Castle Brook Vineyard, near Ross-on-Wye, has launched the traditionally styled Brut, expanding on the vineyard’s success with its award-winning Classic Cuvée.

The 2013 vintage has had a generous three years resting on its lees in secondary fermentation before disgorging over the winter and its release in early summer 2017.
