Hambledon Première Cuvée Brut Sparkling Wine NV England 75cl

-
+
 

Hambledon Première Cuvée is produced exclusively from Hambledon's own estate on the South East facing chalk slopes of Windmill Down, in the historic village of Hambledon. This English fizz has notes of exuding Seville orange and brioche aromas, with hints of dried flowers and toasted hazelnuts. The palate is explosive, with mouthwatering acidity and dried apricot and citrus. The mouthfeel is a silky soft foam of tingling sparks. The finish shows undertones of vanilla and and salted caramel, ending again with that fresh, vivid, orangey tang. Very dry, long and immensely complex.

Première Cuvée is a blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier, carefully blended to show the best expression of the terroir

“Quite a deep gold. Nicely balanced and distinctly perky. A wine with a real beginning, middle and end. This could be a tip-top English. Very zesty but satisfying with sufficient fruit and a little autolysis. Truly refreshing. Drink 2020-2026.” - Awarded 17.5/20 Points, Jancis Robinson MW
Grape: Chardonnay, Pinot Meunier, Pinot Noir
"Initially steely and reserved, it only takes a couple of swirls to reveal more leesy aromas, touches of baked bread and yellow flowers; there is a fine definition here. The palate is well balanced with a touch of sour lemon on the entry that segues into a leesy midpalate. This is a classy English sparkling wine: taut and focussed with saline notes defining the energetic finish. Recommended." - Neal Martin
