Saffron Grange Vineyard The Rebel Blanc de Gris 2023
Citrus, lychees, ripe pear and honeydew melon with a hint of almond and spice on the finish
This is Saffron Grange’s inaugural release featuring Pinot Gris which was first planted at their vineyard in 2018. This sparkling wine is a blend of 75% Pinot Gris and 25% Chardonnay. It is a young, vibrant and new expression in the Saffron Grange line up – a ‘rebel’ in their range! With vibrant aromatics, this wine has notes of citrus, lychees, ripe pear and honeydew melon with a hint of almond and spice on the finish.
Saffron Grange is a family-run vineyard on the outskirts of the historic market town of Saffron Walden in North-West Essex. Their land is on the same chalk seam as Champagne, and situated on a gentle south-facing slope. Together with the cool, dry climate, the conditions are perfect for growing the highest quality grapes – and the family are perfectionists about turning these into the highest quality sparkling wines.
