Product Notes

Wiston Estate Cuvée is a remarkable English sparkler from the verdant South Downs of Sussex. This luxurious wine is crafted with a classic blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier, producing effervescent bubbles with complex aromatics. Wiston's hallmark precision wine-making yields a delightfully balanced palette showcasing crisp acidity, lively green apple notes, and toasty brioche undertones. A striking freshness resonates through the lingering finish. Renowned for its versatility, Wiston Estate Cuvée provides a truly British pairing for any celebration or gourmet experience, be it an aperitif or pairing with seafood or white meat. It is excellence embodied, a testament to English viticulture.

Tasting Notes

We have released the slow-maturing 2016 Cuvée following the more forward 2017 vintage to allow it to show its full potential. Now drinking beautifully with enticing notes of honeyed citrus, toasted almonds and brioche, the 2016 Cuvée has impressive depth and complexity, with that signature precision and elegance in spades. Displaying a delightful creaminess on the finish, it's delicious now, yet will also mature beautifully for a decade or more in the cellar.
