Upperton Vineyards Alia Blanc de Blanc 2020

Discover Upperton Vineyards Alia Blanc de Blanc 2020, a luxurious Sussex sparkling wine crafted from 100% Chardonnay grapes. This premium English sparkling wine beautifully combines refined complexity with a vibrant, acid-driven freshness. On the nose, it offers a symphony of aromas dominated by pronounced brioche notes and light toast from time spent maturing on the lees, layered with hints of floral and lemon curd aromas, refreshing citrus, and a subtle whisper of melted butter. The palate boasts a good, firm body that is full and rounded, showcasing rich, layered stone fruit flavours and a creamy texture from malolactic fermentation that perfectly balances the wine's lively acidity, while its extra brut profile keeps it remarkably elegant and focused. The finish is long, dry, and lingering, leaving a lasting impression of sophisticated mineral crispness. An exceptional pairing for British seafood like crab, lobster, or pan-seared scallops, this award-winning English wine delivers an exceptional and intriguing taste experience.
