Heppington Chardonnay 2021 - Case of 6
Whilst we are extremely proud of our 2022 Chardonnay, it came from a lovely warm vintage, the 2021 by contrast was cooler and more Chablis-esque, it did very well in competitions, securing two silver medals.
We came across a hidden parcel of 80 bottles that we missed before so we are offering these on a first come, first served basis at a fantastic price of just £70 per case of 6. So if you like your white wines, fresh, clean and high quality, these are the ones for you.
Grapes: Chardonnay 100%

Tasting Notes
“A food-friendly drop to say the least, this Chardonnay will flourish in the company of shellfish. Take it on a trip to the beach (don’t forget the cooler bag) and use it to slurp down a few freshly shucked oysters. Or, for a simple yet luxurious supper with friends, serve it alongside a lobster linguine.”
Our Vineyards
Prior to planting the land had been assessed as exceptional for vine growing. Climactic conditions now make East Kent, and the Canterbury area in particular, an optimum location for growing the champagne varieties. It is apt that the city of Canterbury is twinned with Rheims, the birth place of champagne.
Our Wines
Our sparkling wines are being made by the internationally renowned wine maker Emma Rice of Hattingley Valley. Our still wines are made by Defined Wine, a winery just south of Canterbury, which has established a national reputation. Our 2020 wines won 3 silver medals and a gold. Wines from our 2021 harvest have also now been released.
Heppington Chardonnay 2021
From our boutique family vineyard, this elegant Chardonnay from the exceptional 2021 harvest is aged in French oak barrels with a delicate hazelnut aroma, a palate of orchard fruit, crunchy peach and a grapefruit zest finish.
