2018 Blanc de Blanc No.2 Gift Bottle £65.00
An early budburst, peak flowering on 20th June, and an excellent ripening season combined to yield a perfect harvest in mid October. This wine was created from our north facing Chardonnay parcels with over 100 days on the vine, which excelled in this record breaking vintage. The base wines were created in a combination of traditional oak casks and stainless steel without malolactic fermentation, they were held back after blending and softened using gentle oak exposure and regular batonnage, followed by spending 48 months on the lees after bottling.

1 x 2018 Blanc de Blanc No.2
In the glass, a beautiful golden hue indicates a Blanc de Blancs with great concentration. The wine is aromatically intense, equally balanced in fruit and spice. The fruit is exotic with a unique, ripe kiwi note shining through alongside lemon balm and a juicy yet tangy orange note. The baking spice aromas are delicate and sweet with a hint of nougat creaminess. This is perhaps the most powerful Blanc de Blancs produced by Hundred Hills to date, tamed and brought to balance by long and careful aging.
