NYETIMBER Tillington Vineyard Brut 2014

After an initial whiff of reduction dissipates, there are notes of freshly cut green and red apple and a touch of sea breeze. More air reveals freshly cut red apple flesh. The palate comes in with a kind of rounded energy, with fruity élan that is reminiscent of ripe, red apple. The mousse is fine and creamy, the body is generous yet svelte, and there is a most lovely edge of pith that almost destines this for the table. It is the subtle apple-scented creaminess on the salty, dry finish that is utterly disarming. Impeccable balance.

The Hilt Bentrock Vineyard Chardonnay, Sta Rita Hills, Santa Barbara 2021

Subtle white flower aromas followed by more robust marzipan and apricot notes. More herbal on the palate with bioche and lavender with an almost tangible chalkiness. Super.
