Charlie doesn’t just make serious wine. He makes this.

Heaven’s House Party is Silent Noise’s Pet Nat — and if the name doesn’t immediately make you want to open a bottle, read on. Pétillant Naturel — Pet Nat — is the oldest method of making sparkling wine in the world: the wine is bottled before fermentation is complete, the natural bubbles trapped inside, producing a lively, cloudy, gloriously unpredictable sparkling wine that is as far from Champagne as it is possible to get, and all the more joyful for it. Charlie’s version is an absolute riot of fruit and flavour — nectarines, intense dried apricots, and aromatic lychee leap out of the glass with an almost indecent generosity. In the mouth it is even better: nectarines and peaches, white strawberries, and then — quite unexpectedly and brilliantly — the spicy, bittersweet complexity of Angostura Bitters that perches on the palate and makes you stop and think. And then the finish: a long, exotic, utterly beguiling note of Turkish Delight that lingers on and on and refuses to leave. The kind of wine that makes people at a dinner table put down their glasses and say “what on earth is that?” — in the best possible way. At £18.99, it is the most fun you’ll have with a wine glass this year.
