Produced exclusively from our own estate in Hampshire, our first Blanc de Blancs is a stunning blend based on the 2018 harvest (one of our best yet), with optimum climatic conditions and terroir expression.
Made as a tribute to the modern history and essence of Hambledon Vineyard: the finest Chardonnay grapes coming from our historic vineyard. After maturing on its lees for more than four years, there is an immediate sense of freshness, full of orchard fruit aromas and dancing with creamy apple, quince, brioche and vanilla on the palette, finishing on a ripple of vivacity- the hallmark of all the best English Sparkling Wines.

“Based on the highly regarded 2018 vintage, the Blanc de Blancs – a new addition to the producer's portfolio – was primarily sourced from the south-facing Windmill Down vineyards on belemnite chalk. The NV release was aged on lees for four years. A richly bready, honeyed nose reveals citrus and chamomile, while the palate is round and textured yet driven by vivid freshness. Ginger-spiced with caramelised citrus, mango, and pineapple, leading to a nutty depth that lingers long.”
Tasting Notes
Once in the glass, there is an immediate sensation of freshness, full of the orchard fruit aromas that are so typical of Hambledon. On the palate, the quality of the Chardonnay fruit shines through, with lovely notes of creamy apple and quince, and enhanced by the delicious scents and textures of brioche and subtle vanilla which have been created by the extended time spent ageing in bottle before release. The marriage of all the flavours last right through the palate before the wine finishes on a ripple of vivacity, which is the hallmark of all the best English Sparkling wines.
