United Kingdom Wines
English sparkling wine has taken the world by storm. Made using the same traditional method as Champagne, England's cool climate and chalk soils, particularly across Sussex, Kent and Hampshire, produce sparkling wines of extraordinary finesse, precision and complexity. The same geological chalk seam that runs under the Champagne region of France continues beneath the English countryside, and the results speak for themselves. Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier thrive here, producing elegant, biscuity sparkling wines that now regularly outperform Champagne in blind tastings. A genuinely world-class style that is only getting better.
