English Wine
There was a time when mentioning England and wine in the same sentence would have brought sniggers. Those days have gone, however, and producers like Nyetimber and Hambledon are producing sparkling wines from the South Downs that challenge and beat the best that Champagne can throw at them. With climates changing and top estates better understanding their vines with each year that passes, English sparkling wine is something of which this scepter'd isle should be increasingly proud.
