WINE REVIEW

America and Nick Brewer planted their vines in Sussex in 2018 when America was studying viticulture at Plumpton College. The duo have come a long way, building a diverse and successful wine hospitality business as well as curating a selection of award-winning wines.

This Chardonnay is the latest release from the 2023 vintage, made with Chardonnay aged in three-year barrels and did not go through malolactic fermentation.

On the nose there’s lots of apple and pear with suggestions of nectarine, honeysuckle and peach, as well as a twist of lemon zest.

The palate is crisp with bursts of green orchard fruit and juicy nectarine. There’s a lovely concentration to the fruit, which makes a big statement considering that the 2023 vintage was not without its challenges.
