Sommelier Wine Awards Gold:
Bright citrus notes and lovely elegance’ were just some of the characteristics that earned this Blanc de Blancs Gold, according to team leader Laura Rhys MS, who found it autolyc but fresh, with lemon, mandarin and camomile notes’. For fellow team leader Sarah Jane Evans MW this led to a ‘complex palate, with spring flowers, golden fruits, rhubarb and creamy undertones with a punch of acid – long, supple and smooth’
