Ridgeview Marksman Blanc de Blancs Brut 2014
EnglandFrom the chalky soils of Sussex' South Downs, this dry, focused chardonnay is exclusive for Marks & Spencer in the UK. It's a steal at 23 quid, and the best supermarket-exclusive wine I've ever come across. Three years on the lees has created the ideal cushion to offset the brisk acidity and tight lemon lacing. Meringue, green apple, and a wash of mineral salts linger on the bright finish. Distinctly English, and positively lovely.Tasted: 01 April 2019Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:UK | $25.00 | 750ml | Marks & Spencers |
