Saffron Grange Blanc de Blancs 2021 (6 Bottles) Saffron Walden, Essex, England

£202.00

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

We are so thrilled to introduce our first ever Saffron Grange Blanc de Blancs; a style of wine that we personally love here and have wanted to showcase for a while. Due to a bumper crop of Chardonnay in 2021 we were able to finally achieve this and now it’s ready for you to get your hands on!

This signature vintage wine is made from 100% Chardonnay grapes, gently pressed and then aged for a minimum of 26 months in bottle and on its’ yeast lees and was disgorged in the summer to allow the wine to fully integrate before its release.

This Blanc de Blancs is abundant with orchard fruits, apple blossom and candied lemon on the nose with delicate yuzu, white peaches and a hint of flaky pastry on the palate. The finish is long with an elegant, flinty minerality.

We recommend enjoying this wine chilled on its own as an aperitif or, with seared scallops, creamy chicken cooked in a white wine sauce or with artisanal British cheeses.

Description

About Saffron Grange

Saffron Grange Vineyard is nestled in the picturesque Essex countryside, near Saffron Walden. Our journey began with a thorough soil analysis, revealing the land's unique combination of chalk seam, climate, and topography, making it perfect for growing premium quality sparkling wine grapes.

Our vineyard sits on the same chalk seam as renowned French wine regions, with a rare soil formation that provides excellent drainage and moisture retention. This, combined with the local climate, creates ideal conditions for grape cultivation.

We're proud to be part of the Saffron region's rich history, once a global centre for saffron production. Our vision is to revive this valuable land, creating a renowned centre for fine English sparkling wine, and generating jobs and prosperity for our local community.

At Saffron Grange, our team is our family. We work together, sharing ideas and solving problems, proud of the hard work that has brought us to where we are today.
