PLEASE NOTE: This is an incredibly popular promo, and deliveries can take up to 2 weeks.
An almost pure Chardonnay rosé from Hambledon, England’s oldest commercial vineyard, on the chalk of Windmill Down in Hampshire. This release is built on 2022, Hambledon’s 70th anniversary vintage: a mostly dry and sometimes very warm year that gave sunny, rounded, ripe fruit with plenty of energy and bite.
The delicate colour comes from 10% still red wine. A little less time on lees than recent releases keeps the focus on bright primary red-fruit aromatics and a creamy yet lifted palate.
Blend: 90% Chardonnay, 9% Pinot Noir, 1% Pinot Meunier
Ageing: minimum 24 months on lees
Dosage: 8 g/l
Alcohol: 12%
Drinking: ready now, or cellar for 12 to 24 months
