Product: Balfour Brut Rose 2008
Balfour Brut Rose 2008 is an English sparkling wine a rare gem, aged for over fourteen years on lees – a process that imbues it with exceptional depth and complex. Hailing from the renowned Hush Heath Estate in Kent, Balfour Brut Rosé offers a unique opportunity to experience the brilliance of English sparkling wine at its finest. English sparkling wine pioneer Hush Heath Estate was established in 2002. Their inaugural release, 2008's Balfour Brut Rose, is a tremendous accomplishment. Every sip demonstrates the commitment to quality and painstaking attention to detail, demonstrating the ability of English vineyards to compete with their Champagne rivals.
Unlike its younger counterparts, this extended aging delivers a unique flavor profile. The wine opens with an enticing bouquet where hints of wild strawberry and dried cherry intertwine with surprising notes of candied apple, ginger, and a touch of orange peel. As the wine unfolds on the palate, expect a delightful interplay between ripe red fruit flavors and a surprising creaminess, balanced by a wave of refreshing acidity. Due to its rarity and complexity, Balfour Brut Rosé 2008 deserves a special occasion. Enjoy it alongside afternoon tea with decadent pastries, or pair it with lighter fare like smoked salmon or creamy cheeses. Balfour Brut Rose 2008 is above and beyond everyday wine. It is the ideal choice for commemorating milestones or indulging in a moment of sheer luxury because of its remarkable quality, intriguing intricacy, and renowned reputation as a limited-edition release.
We've also got Nyetimber, Blanc de Blancs 2015, Baron Maxime Brut Gold Reserve.
