Descrizione

Nyetimber è sinonimo di eccellenza nella produzione di vini spumanti inglesi, e il loro Blanc de Blancs non fa eccezione. Questo vino è realizzato esclusivamente con uve Chardonnay, conferendo al suo profilo un'eleganza e freschezza distintive. Alla vista, il Blanc de Blancs di Nyetimber si presenta di un giallo paglierino brillante con riflessi dorati, arricchito da un perlage fine e persistente.

Al naso, emergono delicate note di agrumi, mela verde e fiori bianchi, con un leggero sentore di mandorla tostata e pane appena sfornato, grazie all'affinamento sui lieviti. Questi aromi si fondono in armonia e preparano il palato a un'esperienza gustativa raffinata.

In bocca, il vino è fresco e vivace, con un'acidità ben bilanciata che esalta i sapori di limone, pesca bianca e una leggera mineralità. La struttura cremosa e il finale lungo e pulito completano un quadro gustativo di grande raffinatezza e complessità.

Il Blanc de Blancs di Nyetimber è perfetto come aperitivo, ma si abbina magnificamente anche a piatti di pesce, frutti di mare e insalate leggere. Grazie alla sua qualità superiore e alla sua eleganza, rappresenta un'ottima scelta per occasioni speciali e celebrazioni.

Winery history

Its history began in the late 1980s as a pioneering project to produce English sparkling wines using the grape varieties traditionally used in Champagne. Over time the winery expanded to operate across multiple sites in southern England and has gained international recognition for the quality of its wines. Today it is led by a team of winemakers and by an ownership that has developed production on its own vineyards.

Production philosophy

Vineyard and winemaking practices aimed at maintaining total control over the raw material: estate-grown grapes, parcel-by-parcel harvest and separate vinification of lots to preserve the characteristics of each cru; fermentations and secondary in-bottle fermentation carried out using the traditional method, with extended aging on the lees to develop complexity and structure.

Terroir and vineyards

Vineyards distributed across southern England, with most concentrated in West Sussex, Hampshire and Kent. Soils are predominantly chalk and greensand, with favourable exposures that support slow ripening in a cool climate.

Awards and recognitions

Documented recognitions include major wins at the International Wine Challenge, as well as repeated international awards such as English Wine Producer of the Year, according to company materials and industry sources.
