Bates said: “Winning bronze awards for our latest sparkling wines is a great achievement. Our sparkling wines are made using the traditional method which is a long process.
“As a small producer we can’t always leave our sparkling wines on the lees for as long as larger producer would because we need to keep stock moving.
“Because of this, our sparkling wines have a fresher, more fruit-forward style which we think is becoming more popular amongst consumers”
