"Zesty and obviously deeper flavoured than the vintage-dated Classic Cuvées.
Really long and complex." 17.5/20 Jancis Robinson (May 2016) "Beautifully
focussed lively wine, combining the cool climate zing of England with a mellow
breadcrust aftertaste." International Wine Challenge (IWC) 2018: Silver "It has
a fabulous fine mousse and flavours that combine a zesty citrus with brioche and
lingering finish. Plenty of top hotels feature this as either their only English
wine – or at the very least, a favourite - and it’s also a favourite at weddings
where it is often chosen in preference to champagne." Kate Hilpern for
IndyBest
"15 best English sparkling wines" Southern England is perfect for the
production of sparkling wine. The chalk seam that supplies Champagne grapes with
the perfect green sand and chalky soil to flourish is the very same that runs
under the lee of the South Downs. Owner Eric Heerema and winemaker Cherie
Spriggs of multi-award winning Nyetimber, (most recently in 2016, the receiver
of the IWSC ‘English wine producer of the year’ award) produce sparkling wines
of exceptional quality.

"Nyetimber, near Horsham in West Sussex, has always been a trailblazer.
Established in 1988 by an American couple, the Mosses, it was the first English
wine estate to concentrate on the champagne grapes Pinot and Chardonnay and to
import winemaking expertise from Champagne. Soon after they released their first
wine in the mid-1990s, it “beat” many a champagne in a blind tasting in the FT
offices."

"Very classic nose. Ripe apricots, marzipan, baked lemon. Savoury and refined on
the palate with an elegant mousse and integrated acidity. Layered and long."
