English Sparkling Wines
Nyetimber Classic Cuvée half bottle MV
Toasty, spicy and complex aromas; citrus, honey, pastry and baked apple flavours
Half bottle happiness. The Classic Cuvée is a lovely pale gold and has gentle, fine bubbles. Toasty, spicy and complex aromas showing wonderful development after extended ageing in Nyetimber’s cellar (usually more than three years). The palate supports these complex aromas with honey, almond, pastry and baked apple flavours. Very fine and elegant with a great combination of intensity, delicacy and length.
England’s first traditional method sparkling wine producer, Nyetimber were instrumental in starting the English sparkling wine revolution and today are amongst the most celebrated, and best known, of English wine producers. Based in West Sussex (the Nyetimber estate was mentioned in the Doomsday book) Nyetimber’s perfect greensand and chalk soils allow its vines, in each of its nine separate sites, to flourish across the three counties of Sussex, Hampshire and Kent. The gently south-facing slopes that the vines call home allow for the best possible exposure to the English sunshine, ensuring the grapes achieve the optimum level of ripeness before harvest. Nyetimber only produces sparkling wines, which range from their celebrated multi-vintage cuvée to their illustrious 1086 cuvées, which are amongst the most rarefied and lauded English wines.
