Dry, crisp apple + grapefruit
Pair with smoked fish + canapés
What began as a daring experiment has become one of our most anticipated releases. This is only the third vintage of our traditional method Madeleine Angevine sparkling, and we are incredibly proud of how it has evolved. By harvesting our 2024 grapes just a touch earlier than we do for our still wine, we’ve captured a vibrant, crisp acidity that provides the perfect structure for the secondary fermentation. The result is a sparkling wine that dances between bright, zesty grapefruit and deeper notes of orchard apple.
It isn’t your average bottle of fizz—it is an Alder experiment that truly paid off. We recommend enjoying this with smoked fish or light canapés, but mostly, we recommend enjoying it with good company.
The 2024 vintage was undeniably one of the toughest in recent memory for growers right across the UK and Europe. A relentlessly wet, dull summer made for an incredibly challenging growing season. Yet, despite the rain, rain, and more rain, Mike and the team spent every available moment meticulously caring for our vines. The hard work paid off. We successfully kept our modest crop healthy and happy all the way to harvest in late September. There is a classic saying in winemaking that a smaller crop often yields greater ripeness and character—and 2024 is proof. In a year that could easily have been a total disaster, we brought home a harvest we are incredibly proud of, creating wines to be enjoyed in – hopefully – much warmer, drier and sunnier times ahead.
After tasting a bottle, or two (such a chore) we fell head over heels for the dry, crisp and fruity taste of the Madeleine Angevine. Originally found in The Loire Valley in France, 3,500 vines now call our patch on the edge of Dartmoor home. They love our cooler climate making for a truly special glass.
Alongside our dry, still Madeleine Angeveine returns our limited release sparkling version. Crisp and refreshing, ready to celebrate or enjoy with fish, or canepês.

From the muddy boots of winter pruning to the glimmering sunshine across our Devon vineyard at harvest, our love of wine has grown far beyond the bottle. What began as a family challenge to redefine how we used our slice of Devon quickly became something we could all be proud of. With a deep love of the land and a passion for making wine, we jumped feet-first into the world of English wine — and our son, Tom, became our dedicated winemaker, learning the craft so he could shape our wines right here among the vines we tend as a family.
Who knew the edge of Dartmoor could be the perfect home for 7,000 vines? The only thing we love more than growing them is sharing our story — and a glass of our latest vintages — with you. So what are you waiting for?
We are so glad you decided to join us. You will receive an email in the next 15mins to confirm your email address then you’ll be a fully-fledged member of our Vine Club.

We love wine here at Alder Vineyard but it’s useful to remember that wine is of course an alcoholic product. Whilst wine can be enjoyed in moderation, it is important to seek help and advice if you think you, or a loved one is drinking too much.
You must be 18 or over to purchase wine and other alcoholic products.
Our Kitchen is well stocked with drinks from across Devon and beyond and proudly includes several non-alcoholic options. This includes non-alcoholic beers, gin-alternatives, mocktails and of course, soft drinks.
If you think you, or a loved one may need help and support due to alcohol misuse, please use the links below to find incredibly useful charities and resources that can help you.
We are proudly committed to protecting our environment and the planet in any way we possibly can. Our ethical and sustainable practices are at the heart of what we do here.
