2010 Sparkling.

Our very first wine. Released in 2014 and if you are lucky enough to till have a bottle it’s still full of life! The wine has rich aromas of lemon, spice and toasted nuts. On the palate it keeps a taut balance between freshness and the minerality typical of Higher Plot with a full ripe finish.. It is 60% Chardonnay with the remainder split between Pinot Noir and Meunier.


For those that are interested in technical side of life, around half the wine spent 3 months in third use white wine barrels from Smith Haut Lafite (sadly no relation) It then spent two and a half years in bottle on its lees before disgorgement and was topped up with 2010 still wine reserved specifically for this use.
