"Pale gleaming straw yellow with a good froth. Wild hedgerow flowers, sliced
Bramley apples and grapefruit aromas which follow through in the mouth. Good
weightiness and delicate autolysis giving a lovely bready character. A very
English sparkler and very good it is."
IWSC (2016): Silver
"Lovely yeasty aromas with baked apple fruits and a touch of toast and walnuts.
Long finish."
International Wine Challenge (2017): Silver
"Delicate nose with subtle autolysis aromas and chalky, mineral notes. Creamy
and rich palate with classic ripe apple fruit and a lovely saline acidity."
Decanter World Wine Awards (2017): Silver
"Redfold Vineyards, which are located on the south-facing slopes overlooking the
South Downs, only produce sparkling wines. Their mid-priced and graceful mix of
chardonnay, pinot noir and pinot meunier has good acidity and length and
delectable flavours of stewed apples and pears, complemented by brioche. Enjoy
it with canapés and fish or on its own."
IndyBest "15 best English sparkling wines"
The Classic Cuvée is a traditional blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot
Meunier. It has the crisp elegance of an English gentleman and perfect balance.
The Classic Cuvée is a wonderful aperitif and is particularly good with canapés
and fish (especially sushi) – it has set the fashion for ‘Fizz and Chips’
parties.
