Exton Park Blanc de Noirs 2014 Hampshire, England
11.5% alcohol. Pinot Noir, 7 years on lees, disgorged in 2022. This is tart and bright with keen lemony acidity high in the mix. There’s some green apple and cherry here alongside the lemon and lime fruit, and some rhubarb, with subtle bready, toasty complexity. Flirting with unripeness, with no malolactic exaggerating the shrill acid line. Distinctive stuff, thoroughly English in style, with lots to like. 92/100
