Limney Estate Sparkling, Davenport, East Sussex, England

Green apple and conference pear fruit, buttery richness from the lees ageing and mineral earthiness from the Pinot Noir and citrus drive and edge from the Chardonnay.

The winery is at Limney Farm, an old dairy farm with buildings that made easy conversion for their new winemaking purpose. Since 2010 the winery is now solar powered. Solar panels generate enough electricity to run the whole winery.

Grape: 50% Chardonnay, 26% Pinot Noir, 24% Pinot Meunier
