Higham Vineyard sits on the north side of the Stour Valley in Suffolk and is owned by good friend of mine, David Alston. David took on this wonderful site in 2019 and has since been managing the vineyard personally - management that resulted in a most impressive début vintage last year.
2023 'Higham Pink' Single Estate English Rosé, Higham Vineyard, Suffolk
In Stock
ABOUT THIS WINE
A small-production single-vineyard rosé, made only from Pinot Noir. The result is a crisp, delicate, off-dry cuvée to so deliciously exemplify the sheer quality England now achieves in the production of rosé wines. Pairs well fish, salads and spicy foods.
Tasting Note
To begin, an irresistible shimmering pale salmon pink hue in the glass. Then an expressive, aromatic nose with bright summer fruits and ripe cherries and subtle floral notes. Really striking freshness and purity here, with citrus zip on the palate dovetailing nicely with notable intensity and texture. Pronounced morello cherry and red berry fruit suggest the merest hint of sweetness, but the finish is crisp, clean and tangy. A smart, stylish rosé with real presence, clarity and character.
