About the wine:

 A delicious, elegant vintage with a rich softness and lingering finish. 

The 2019 will develop further with age but is perfect for drinking now as an aperitif.  

KEY NOTES: 

  • Believed to be London's first Sparkling Brut 
  • Made in the traditional Champagne Method 
  • 'Single Estate'; and produced only from grapes grown on Forty Hall Vineyard, North London
  • Certified Organic

The 2019 vintage of Forty Hall Vineyard's Sparkling Brut is made in the traditional 'Champagne' method from organically grown Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier and Chardonnay grapes, tended and harvested by hand by the volunteers at Forty Hall Vineyard in North London. 

Our wines are made for us by multi award-winning English wine maker, Will Davenport and reflect the best of low-intervention, natural English winemaking.

Tasting notes:

A golden hue reveals expressive aromas and defined flavours of citrus testiness, ripe orchard apples and Comice pears with a touch of fruit salad. Two years lees ageing lends further pastry and brioche notes to the mid palate.
