Domaine Hugo NV Botleys Col Fondo Blend
Domaine HugoGrape: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, Pinot Gris
Vintage: NV
Type: Sparkling
This is a dry pet-nat, stoppered by a crown cap, made from the three champagne varieties plus Pinot Gris grown in a single vineyard. Unfiltered. Very pale apricot colour. This smells pretty much like a grower’s champagne, and tastes like a lightweight version of one. Bone-dry impression. Very clean and fresh.
Domaine Hugo is an English wine producer known for its small-scale, artisanal sparkling wines. The estate is a collaboration between biodynamic viticulturist Hugo Stewart and winemaker Daniel Ham of Offbeat Wines. Following extensive experience with biodynamic farming in France, Hugo Stewart returned to his family farm to establish the winery in 2015. The vineyard is fully organic and biodynamic, focusing on creating a healthy ecosystem by using practices such as natural cover crops and allowing sheep to graze. The winery has earned a strong reputation for quality. It is the only English member of the prestigious biodynamic association Renaissance des Appellations.
