Burn Valley Vineyard Chardonnay 2022
Honeysuckle, vanilla and tropical fruits, with flavours of stone fruits and a textural finish
Born from the long and hot 2022 vintage, this is Burn Valley’s first still Chardonnay, made from hand-harvested fruit from Burn Valley’s vineyards. The wine was aged in a combination of new and aged Hungarian oak for six months. It offers beautiful aromas of honeysuckle, vanilla and tropical fruits, leading to a soft, buttery palate with stone fruits and a soft textural finish.
Only four miles from the stunning Norfolk coastline, Burn Valley Vineyard and Winery lie in the village of North Creake. Two sisters work alongside their brother, who farms the land surrounding the vineyard. Burn Valley Vineyard was established in 2016 by the Robinson family; third generation Norfolk farmers. The vineyard name is derived from the river Burn; a rare chalk stream that runs eight miles through North Creek. The chalky, flinty landscape is instrumental in helping Burn Valley thrive.
