Region
If you have never tried an English wine before – well now is your opportunity. The vineyards of England are generally located in the warmer southern counties where the milder influences of the gulf stream have an important effect, as our northern hemisphere vineyards need a longer cooler growing season than in Europe to produce top quality grapes. More than 500 vineyards are in production across the UK and bottled annual sales has reached 3 million bottles, with Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Bacchus the most planted varieties.
Producer
Chapel Down is one of England’s leading wine producers based in the heart of the Garden of England and boast a world-class range of sparkling and still wines, together with the award-winning range of Curious beers, ciders and spirits. Their sparkling wines are created using the Traditional Method, the same as Champagne, from fruit sourced on similar soils in the chalky terroir of the North Downs of Kent from Tenterden which is in the South-East of England.
Tasting Notes
This elegant English rosé has the balance of soft summer fruits and floral notes followed by a refreshingly crisp acidity. Fresh and fruity on the finish - the perfect summer wine.
Food
Perfect on its own or with asparagus wrapped in parma ham.
