- Refined, creamy sparkling wine that perfectly balances chalky, fruity floral and yeasty, bready notes. The mousse is extremely fine, and the palate is dry without being austere, with impressive richness on the finish; this is one of England's most complete traditional methods of wine.

Winery | The Liddell family have farmed at Cottonworth in the Test Valley for five generations. They planted their first vines in 2005, and the vineyard has grown ever since, along with Cottonworth’s reputation as a top-drawer sparkling wine producer. Before that, Hugh Liddell, who runs the wine side of the farm, worked and studied in Burgundy and has since done vintages in South Africa and New Zealand, as well as gaining a viticulture and oenology degree from Plumpton College, allowing him to be fully hands-on in the production of these exceptional wines |
