CoatesandSeelyBrutReserveNV

Clear pale lemon green colour in the glass with steady streaming bubbles. Wonderful fruit and biscuity aromas leap out at you. A smooth fruit driven palate of fresh green apple and nettle with hints of smoke. Bone-dry, light mouth-feel with an unmistakable, zippy lemony acidity. A soft mousse balances the texture well. Perfect to freshen up an afternoon with it’s crisp fresh taste.

Critics reviews:

‘Extremely pretty apple and lemon-curd aromas with some honey-dew melon undertones. Hints of bread dough. Full-bodied with plenty of fruit, a layered texture and a creamy finish. Fruity, yet tight and focused.â€?/p>

‘Very, very English. All our other drinks that the Brits do well come to mind, apples from the orchard, great aromas of Elderflower. Light and highly entertaining and made on the Hampshire Downs.â€?â€?Matthew Cobb â€?Wine Advisor

‘Elegant hawthorn and acacia on the nose than a palate that has impressive mousse, green apple freshness and hints of autolytic brioche to round it out.â€? Simon Field MW
