Cool-climate acidity and finesse.
The wine region of England
Quality renaissance of English wine, signature in traditional-method sparklers. On chalk soils identical to Champagne's (South-East), fine, taut bubbles with signature notes of green apple, lemon, white flowers, brioche and chalk, the vivid acidity of a cool climate. Based on Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Meunier. Still wines a minority: aromatic Bacchus (elderflower, cut grass — the English identity), fresh Pinot Noir.
