Description
In a nutshell:
An outstanding English Sparkling Wine from Hambledon of Hampshire, England's oldest commercial vineyard.
The lowdown:
This Chardonnay dominated Premiere Cuvee has all the marks of a very good Champagne but with classic English acidity and an intense, linear finish. Complex, expressive, rich and leesy aromas with notes of confit lemon, orange blossom and white liliy. A rich and broad palate with baked apple, white peach and ripe apricot fruit flavours evolving into notes of tarte Tatin and almond croissant. The classic English, refined, mouth-watering acidity gives great structure to the wine holding everything together. Elegant, complex and intense.
The Producer:
Hambledon Vineyard , established in 1952 by Major-General Sir Guy Salisbury-Jones, proudly claims the title of "Englands oldest commercial vineyard." Nestled in the Hampshire downs, they now span over 200 acres, dedicated to Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier. These classic grape varieties are the backbone of their distinguished sparkling wines. It's a place where tradition meets innovation, with a quiet commitment to quality offering a taste of English viticulture that's both historic and forward-thinking.
When to drink:
This richer wine can work well with more decadent foods such as lobster, scallops and turbot but works just as well with fish & chips or as an aperitif.
