From an excellent vintage and on lees for over six years, this exceptional bubbly is also England's most expensive wine. Reaching a decade of age, it's remarkably youthful. A pale radiant gold, this wine delivers vibrant aromas of honeyed lemon, grilled pineapple, guava, nougat and ground ginger open, with a toasty, mushroomy underbelly. There's quiet opulence and power, here, with beads of fine bubbles and bright acidity. On the long creamy mousse ride a myriad flavors right through to the exceptionally long finish. It's a world-class sparkling with regional character but global appeal.

Varietal: Champagne Blend

The careful blending of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir varietal grapes has long been the secret to the success of the famous sparkling wines of the Champagne region. The wines of this region have gone down in history as the finest example of France's sparkling produce, and the methods of processing the grapes in this region have been imitated in almost every wine producing country in the world. There are actually seven different grape varietals allowed to be included in a Champagne sparkling wine, although grape varietals such as Pinot Blanc, Arbanne and Pinot Gris are used less and less commonly in its production. Whilst the Chardonnay varietal grapes offer their distinctive biscuit flavor and wonderful astringency, it is the Pinot Noir grapes (most commonly used for producing beautifully light red wines) which give the Champagne wines their length and backbone.
