Giffords Hall Classic Cuvée 2018

Description

Giffords Hall Classic Cuvée 2018 has the robust acidity and minerality you would expect from a traditional English Sparkling Wine. Along with this, it has depth and distinctive fruit flavours with a delicate floral twist and a biscuit-dry finish.

Pair with traditional fish and chips, alongside other smoked, oily fish.

Made using the traditional Champagne method and grapes. Hand-selected Pinot Noir, Burgundy clone, and Pinot Blanc make up this vintage, with the base wines barrel fermented in French Limousin oak.
