If you ask us, English sparkling wine doesn't come better than that of Sugrue South Downs. Founded by Dermot Sugrue, then head winemaker of Wiston Estate, in 2009, originally producing just this one cuvee 'The Trouble with Dreams' each vintage. Over the last few years he has been joined by his wife Ana, a winemaker with experience around the world and a former lecturer at Plumpton College, and they have found a number of wonderful vineyards across Sussex to work with.
The 2019 Trouble with Dreams is a blend of 60% Chardonnay and 40% Pinot Noir, from Mount Harry, Coldharbour and Storrington Priory vineyards. Half of the blend is fermented in old Burgundy barrels to help develop richness and complexity. After secondary fermentation it spent 3 and a half years ageing on its lees before disgorging with a small dosage of 6 g/L.
Another spectacular vintage for this wine, showing intense and pure citrus and stone fruits with floral, nutty and pastry aromas adding complexity. Long and crisp on the palate, with fine bubbles and flinty minerality in the finish. Delicious now, either as an aperitif or with seafood (I was fortunate to attend a prior Sugrue launch party where the wines went stunningly with oysters), these wines also have a brilliant capacity for further ageing in bottle.

New & Exciting
There are very few wine shops as good as Butlers, years of buying wines from them. There is always something new & exciting to pick out off the shelves and if you’re in any doubt the advice is considered and insightful.

Brilliant Butlers!
Words can't express the brilliance of Butlers or the thoughtfulness, expertise and compassion of their team! Whilst packing up to move internationally a friend died and I needed to organise an emergency case of something luscious to support the wake. Not only did their wonderful team organise and deliver within an incredibly tight deadline they drafted a message for me too which I approved. Wonderful!!

Delightful, delicious, delectable
As a lockdown convert, I'm an online customer, but the clear website, with interesting blogs and some comprehensive descriptions, really helps to steer you. Great advice when needed and great service too.

Sourcing Stock
Henry and Team managed to locate some difficult to find American wine which they kindly offered and I gratefully accepted. They truly differentiate by being able to surprise by sourcing stock very much outside the run of the mill.

Great Wine/Spirit shop with knowledgeable, friendly and helpful staff
This was my second visit to Butlers Wine Cellar and on both occasions the service has been wonderful. The young lady assisted me and my wife on a number of purchases of wine and sherry and seemed very knowledgeable and made us feel welcome. Having tasted them she was spot on with her comments on each bottle. I would highly recommend anyone to use this shop.
