Nyetimber, Rosé, West Sussex, brut, rosé

For over 35 years, Nyetimber has had a single aim: to make the finest English sparkling wine, one to rival the very best in the world. A true pioneer, Nyetimber was the first producer of English sparkling wine to exclusively grow the three celebrated grape varieties: Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier and Chardonnay. Nyetimber is made from one hundred percent estate-grown grapes and is regarded as England’s finest sparkling wine. Owner and Chief Executive Eric Heerema and Head Winemaker Cherie Spriggs are committed to producing wines of exceptional quality. Nyetimber uses only its own grapes from its own vineyards, across a total of 372 hectares, each of which was deliberately selected to be south-facing with either sandy or chalk soils. Allof our vineyards across the south of England are situated to have ideal conditions for growing our three grape varieties. Prior to harvest, the grapes are tasted to ensure the best flavour development before picking. Every single grape is picked by hand at the optimal time, a decision that is made on a parcel by parcel basis. Each vineyard parcel is treated uniquely, from picking to gently pressing to vinification in separate tanks. Such attention to detail allows for a wonderful diversityof base wines when blending decisions are made in the spring following the harvest. All wines are crafted according to the strict rules of the traditional method, aged for extended periods of time on the lees and given sufficient postdisgorgement time before release.
