Nyetimber Blanc de Blancs 2013

This estate is where English sparkling wine began. From a few vines in the late 1980s, Nyetimber now has more than 250 hectares of vineyards, in several counties. This wine spends at least four and a half years on its lees. The nose is of honey, lemon tart, buttercups and sweet pastry. The attack is plush and silkily textured, with ripe, sweet peachy fruit and a fine, creamy mousse melding as though one. Hints of toast and hazelnuts add dimension to this lengthy and concentrated bubbly. Drinking Window 2019 - 2024.
