Our 2018 Blanc de Noirs is complex and refined with delicate bubbles, a silky texture, and a long, exquisite finish. Baked apples and citrus fruits on the palate are layered with notes of brioche, honey and sweet spice.

The 2018 growing season was perfect in every way. Favourable conditions at flowering and fruit set followed by an incredible summer filled with sunny, dry days encouraged a bountiful crop of high-quality fruit with exceptional balance and flavour. Warm, clear days and cool nights in September were crucial for maintaining acidity levels. Picking started in early September with large yields of wonderfully ripe bunches sent to press. Undoubtedly, this would be one of the finest vintages in England to date.

Carefully selected bunches were harvested by hand and gently whole bunch pressed. Partial fermentation in old Burgundian barrels followed by a generous lees-ageing in bottle for a minimum of four years imparts a wonderful richness and complexity on this wine.
