Stanza

A late-season variety that fruits well into August when other redcurrants are finished. Heavy-cropping with good-sized berries, and the late timing means you can extend the soft fruit season by several weeks. The patient one.

Redcurrant sauce for lamb

Simmer redcurrants with a little sugar and a splash of port until the berries burst and the sauce thickens. Strain or leave whole. The classic British accompaniment to roast lamb — sharp, sweet, and a stunning deep red.
