Punchy grapefruit and gooseberry flavours with underlying grass and elderflower notes.
Two of my favourite things... @Nyetimber Blanc de Blancs and home cooked Chinese food. Great way to start the new year, and the Nyetimber BdB 14 is a real delight! #EnglishSparkling

3Kicked off our Christmas meal with a modern take on prawn cocktail with pickled fennel salad, and some salmon terrine (thanks to @waitrose) and multi grain bread. Paired with the incredibly food and Christmas friendly @ArteliumWine Makers Rosé.
