Surprised what the dosage is on this as the RS was a bit noticeable. Very good nonetheless.

Head-shivering acid, high minerality and the perfect reduction. Didn’t have the right food to pair with but still enjoyed the wine very much. Understandable why this wine scored so high in blind tasting compared to grand cru champagnes. 53% Pinot Noir, 40% Chardonnay and 7% Pinot Meunier, wine is from Kent, England which is becoming a hot spot for one of the best in class sparkling wines in the world.

Very good. Everything bright - red berries and lemon zing. Cinnamon, nutmeg. Tight with high energy.

Lemony high acid, very light mlf. Almost imperceptible vanilla. Too simple and tart in the 2014.
