Description
In a nutshell:
A fresh and fruity white wine, with a hint of creaminess, from Kent.
The lowdown:
This wine shows the perfect balance between a fresh fruity English Chardonnay and softer texture and creaminess you might expect from a wine from Europe. This wine is unoaked so that the citrus flavours typical of this varietal can be accentuated. It is fresh and bright, with a clean palate. During the production of the wine, there is extended lees aging and bâtonnage, which helps to soften the acidity, generally associated with English wines.
The Producer: Balfour Winery
When Richard and Leslie Balfour-Lynn planted their first vines near Staplehurst in Kent back in 2002, they had plans to become leaders in the budding English wine industry. Their estate, nestled in the Weald of Kent, is perfect for viticulture and while they're best known for their sparkling wines, their still wines are also top-notch. They've definitely hit their objectives, with their wines certainly being held in high regard. As well as this, they've dived into "enotourism" in a big way, proudly calling themselves England's "best vineyard to visit".
When to drink:
Would pair well with a salad or try with seafood, more specifically oysters and crayfish.
