About the wine

Tasting notes

Aromas of butter pastry, fresh lemon zest, chalk and chamomile with a gentle herbals. In the mouth it's tightly mineral and tense with acidity, but fills out with richness of fruit whilst keeping dry. Beautifully textured and holds with flavours of ripe apple and grapefruit flavours.

The Grape

Blanc de Blancs

French for “white of whites”, Blanc de Blancs is a sparkling wine made entirely from Chardonnay grapes. Made famous in Champagne, these wines have an incredible purity and linearity about them and express with intense lemon and apple-like fruit flavours, usually with an underlying seam of minerality and precise acidity.
