2013 English Brut

ABV 12%

A rounded, yet brightly fruity style of very English fizz. Good appley fresh fruit and a satisfying moreish perfectly judged finish. This is unapologetically an English sparkling wine, albeit made with Champagne Grpaes and in the Champagne Method. The 2013 is floral and bright with good crunchy shape to the fruit, it delivers a really great glass of bubbles. L&S (Nov 2015)

On the 2010 vintage - this is the finest debut English sparkling wine that I have ever tasted. It is a very wistful and romantic creation. The aroma is sensational and while it is a little youthful right now, it will develop into a sensational drop over the next two years. Tasted alongside the newly released 2002 Veuve Clicquot vintage it looked twice the wine at half the price! Matthew Jukes www.matthewjukes.com

Herbert Hall

At the end of the 19th Century, Herbert Hall arrived in the village of Marden in Kent. He became a tenant farmer on a ten-acre sunny, gently sloping site to the west of the village.

Herbert Hall was a colourful character and a great horticulturalist. He grew hops, apples, pears, and plums and his little farm came to embody the original spirit of The Garden of England. Herbert went on to build a farm that has remained in the Hall family for three generations.

In 2007 his great-grandson, the winemaker Nick Hall, chose Herbert’s original site to plant a vineyard with Chardonnay (40%), Pinot Noir (30%), and Pinot Meunier (30%). Herbert always said it was the best piece of land he had ever farmed and this sheltered sunny organic site, continues to produce superb fruit.

Winemaker Kirsty Smith joined in 2014 to help produce these handmade, traditional-method English Sparkling Wines. The grapes undergo primary fermentation in stainless steel tanks with 10% of the blend fermented in oak barrels.
