“What an incredible wine this is. A white made from 100% Pinot Meunier, so gracefully soft and mellow. It has gentle notes of pear, lemon peel and a creamy yet mineral finish. One of the highlights this year for me. Try with seared scallops to be even more blown away.”
Expert review
“ery posh broad-bottomed bottle. Definite Pinot nose – perfumed – and an amazing amount of fruit for an English wine – with quite a bit of acidity but not too much.”
“This unique white, the UK's first still Pinot Meunier, bottled with a glass stopper, offers creamy, juicy pear and confit lemon - great purity and density from young vines. ”
