2015 Blanc de Noirs Brut, Ridgeview, Sussex
The 2015 Blanc de Noirs from Ridgeview is a blend of 52% Pinot Noir and 48% Pinot Meunier, which spends 6 years ageing on lees before release offering depth, richness and complexity. Round and expressive, toasty autolytic notes combine with apricot and earthy red fruit aromas on the nose. The palate has wonderful weight and texture, singing with sappy red cherry and toasted almond. The finish is long, engaging and harmonious.
