Product: Balfour Brut Rose 2008
Balfour Brut Rose 2008 is an English sparkling wine from the renowned Hush Heath Estate in Kent. Aged for over fourteen years on lees, this rare gem boasts exceptional depth and complexity. It is a testament to the growing success of English vineyards and their ability to compete with Champagne. Their inaugural release, the 2008 Balfour Brut Rose, is a tremendous accomplishment that showcases the commitment to quality and attention to detail at Hush Heath Estate.
The extended aging of Balfour Brut Rose 2008 results in a unique flavor profile. The bouquet offers hints of wild strawberry, dried cherry, candied apple, ginger, and a touch of orange peel. On the palate, expect a delightful interplay between ripe red fruit flavors, a creamy texture, and refreshing acidity. Due to its rarity and complexity, Balfour Brut Rose 2008 is perfect for special occasions and pairs well with afternoon tea, smoked salmon, or creamy cheeses. It is a truly luxurious experience.
For those seeking other options, we also offer the Nyetimber Blanc de Blancs 2015 and Baron Maxime Brut Gold Reserve.
