Blind it would be hard to believe it's not Champagne. Who knew England made good sparkling wine. Restrained acidity, great balance, delightful effervescence. Creamy with hints of green apple, toast, and almond. #QPR

Bit heavy on the autolytic notes and dosage (there's a mint chocolate chip thing I'm trying to get my head around) but really nice to see back on these shores.

Zippy apple and unripe pear - slightly shrill and angular.

Bright. Lemons. Sourdough. Searing acidity a bit much.

I've tried a few of these English sparklers now. While they are refreshing; I feel like they lack depth.
