Whether you love a good Rosé, or you're more into sparkling wines, you could do much much worse than exploring the bottles produced in our very own country. England's offering has never been better and what better excuse to explore it than during English Wine Week (May 28-June 5).

There are currently 580 vineyards in the UK, so there are plenty of vines that are ripe for exploring.

Head to the West Country to sample your way through the Camel Valley vineyard in Cornwall - its Rosé is award-winning and not to be missed.

Or if you're into your sparkling wines, Nyetimber in Sussex is a must-visit, as is Hambledon in Hampshire.

So next time you're thinking of doing a booze cruise to France, why not look a little bit closer to home?
