(Decanter) - The 2014 vintage of Queen Elizabeth II's English sparkling wine is already available for pre-order after the 2013 crop of wines sold out quickly before Christmas - but it won't be released until this autumn.

Next vintage for Queen’s English wine

The 2013 vintage was sold only as a three bottle set, costing £75, and released in time for Christmas. It quickly sold out, according to merchants.

The Windsor Vineyard 2014 vintage is due to be released this autumn, at £35 for an individual bottle, and can already be pre-ordered.

Fewer than 2,000 bottles were available for the first vintage, but volumes have not been confirmed for 2014.

The fast sales of the 2013 vintage echo strong momentum for English sparkling wine as a whole over the Christmas and New Year period.
