Sugrue South Downs Cuvee Boz, Blanc de Blanc

Producer: Sugrue South Downs

Vintage: 2020

ABV: 12%

Region: Hampshire

Grape Varieties: 100% Chardonnay

Tasting Notes: The 2015 Cuvée Boz, released at the end of February 2021, is 100% Chardonnay from the Jenkyn Place Vineyard in Hampshire. This has a light mousse and a greenish tint. The welldefined, complex and harmonious nose unfolds to reveal green apples, crustaceans and subtle hints of lemon thyme.

The palate is very well-balanced and poised, quite weighty in the mouth, offering citrus peel, orange zest and faint traces of strawberry toward the elegant finish with autolytic notes running through. Outstanding.
