Our cellar master has combined premium English grapes with the wine making tradition and expertise of the Pommery House to create a distinctive, fresh and elegant wine. Louis Pommery England is the creation of Pinglestone Estate, Hampshire, where the planting of a 100 acre vineyard started in 2017.
With the results of our Global Sparkling Masters 2019 out, we wanted to draw your attention to a curious, Anglo-French number from Louis Pommery that impressed the judges this year. Pommery revealed its plans to put down roots in England in 2014,announcing a partnership with Hattingley Valley in Hampshireto use its facilities to produce the houses first English sparkler. It will be several years before the Pinglestone vineyard bears fruit, with the first harvest expected in 2021 and full production from 2024, but Pommery is taking a long-term view of the project. In the meantime, this limited edition number has already proved what Pommery is capable of producing on British soil. A smooth mousse with aromas of citrus and apple, the wine is a marriage of quality reserve wines from Hattingley and the expert blending of Pommerys winemaker. It has that signature acidity and taut structure were starting to see as a hallmark of English fizz, as well as the toasty, brioche-like depth we know and love about Champagne. Alongside this, a fresh lemony flavour on the palate, hints of honeycomb and a long finish will have you reaching for another glass before long. Great
freshness and finesse from the emerging aromas of lime, apple and pear.
Beautiful notes of blackcurrant and white fruit topped with a hint of honey.
The finish is long and soft with an excellent balance of sweetness and acidity. Alexandre-Louis
Pommery, an enlightened businessman, founded the Pommery Champagne House in
1836. Since its creation, the portfolio of Pommery champagnes is the expression
of a unique and extensive know-how combining tradition with modernity. We have
adapted the brand to modern times without revolutionising it, having the same
unparalleled focus on the quality of our Champagnes. It is with this same
quality criterion that we have created our English sparkling wine, Louis
Pommery England. We knew
that Pommery could develop an excellent quality sparkling wine in the English
County of Hampshire. There, we found the same vein of chalk that runs through
the Champagne region in France and extraordinary wealth of terroir. In November
2017, Pommery planted the first English vines by a Champagne company. Since June
2021, Pinglestone Estate has been awarded the label Sustainable Wines Of Great
Britain. Preserving and enhancing the terroir, biodiversity and landscapes is
key in our winemaking. The blend
incorporates a majority of Chardonnay, contributing to its finesse and
elegance, as well as a large proportion of Pinot Noir, which produces fruit and
structure, with a touch of Pinot Meunier. The wine is made by traditional
Champagne method. After ageing for the necessary time on lees, to reach the
desired maturity, the sparkling wine is disgorged to remove any yeast deposits
which give the wine its depth and structure.Product information
