The wine region of Kent
Southeastern English county, ~25% of the British vineyard, chalky North Downs soils comparable to Champagne, temperate maritime climate. Signature metodo classico sparklers: Chardonnay-Pinot Noir-Pinot Meunier blend with fine bubbles, pale robe, notes of green apple, citrus, brioche, hazelnut and chalky touch, lively palate — modern English reference. Bacchus as taut floral white (grapefruit, elderflower, boxwood). Chapel Down, Gusbourne flagships.
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.
The word of the wine: Hygrometry
Humidity level of the cellar necessary for a good ageing of the wines. The recommended hygrometry is around 70% in order to guarantee a good elasticity of the corks while preserving the labels.
