About a year ago, gave us a tip about an English wine producer making absolutely elegant, outstanding wines. So we went on a trip to see it with our own eyes and, of course, have a taste.
What we found — in a place not traditionally known for its wines — was something special, not least due to the terroir of England's southeastern coast.
Here we have the WHITE CLIFFS BLANC DE BLANCS BRUT from Simpsons Wine Estate made from 100% Chardonnay, produced using the traditional bottle-fermentation method and aged on the lees for 36 months. It shows notes of brioche, citrus, and minerality.
