Hattingley Valley, Classic Cuvee Brut NV

50% Chardonnay, 30% Pinot Noir, 19% Pinot Meunier, 1% Pinot Gris. Base 2014 with 18% reserve wines. 4.5 years’ lees ageing. Dosage 7 g/l. Disgorged January 2020.
“Tasted blind. Mid straw colour. Edgy and vibrant on the nose. Tastes pretty youthful. It could do with just a little more bottle age, I think. But if I were served this in Champagne I’d be perfectly happy. Round with depth. Is this champagne? Long.”

17.5/20 Jancis Robinson MW

“A complex nose of sourdough, green and bruised apple, plus savoury characters of soy sauce and biscuits. The latest release is based on the 2015 vintage, plus 23% of reserve wines. Partial barrel fermentation and malolactic fermentation, combined with 4 years of ageing on lees, give the wine lovely roundness and richness on the palate, with brioche, buttered citrus and red apple, followed by mouth-smacking umami depth and a pinch of spice on the finish.”
