Take the stress out of buying a gift, let them choose exactly what they want.
It pours a beautiful pale gold with an ultra-fine, persistent mousse, unfolding with complex, mature aromas of freshly baked pastry, honeyed almonds, and warm baked apple. The palate is broad, textured, and wonderfully harmonious—fusing vibrant stone fruit and zesty citrus with a creamy mouthfeel, toasted brioche, and a refined, flinty minerality on an incredibly long finish . This is a rare opportunity to experience English sparkling wine of the absolute highest pedigree, standing shoulder-to-shoulder in maturity, depth, and poise with the grandest aged Champagnes

The 2010 Classic Cuvée, disgorged in May 2015, has a crisp, focused, quite steely bouquet of fresh Granny Smith apples mixed with wet limestone and nettle notes; a touch of dandelion emerges with time. Certainly this has more complexity than the 2006 and 2007, which did not go through malolactic. The palate is taut and fresh on the entry with a fine bead of acidity, fresh and saline, with a touch of ginger toward the phenolic finish. This has a Blanc de Noirs character due to the higher percentage of Pinot Noir, though Brad Greatrix told me that it was apparently not as expressive that year.
