Classic Cuvée, Nyetimber, West Sussex/Hampshire (magnum)
We consider Nyetimbers Classic Cuvee among the great, great sparkling wines of the world. One of a quality, elegance and finesse to find it routinely rivalling - indeed often exceeding - many from that most famous French appellation. An English sparkling wine that is simply not to be missed.
Leading wine critic Jancis Robinson MW described it well "So, perhaps Nyetimber really is the Krug of England. Or should we say that Krug is the Nyetimber of Champagne? Either way, I cannot recommend this exemplary, delicious, flag-bearing English sparkling wine highly enough, at any price. The quality Nyetimber is achieving is almost too good, and I mean that quite seriously."

Critics' reviews:
"This is a class act. Fresh white breadcrumb and crisp, ripe red apple combine to create an appetizing nose. The lively fizz on the palate makes the tart but ripe red-apple notions stand out, painted against a mellow, yeasty backdrop and resonant, bready depth. This wine is crisp and rich in equal measure, bold and full flavored, yet elegant and smooth. Outstanding freshness, brightness and purity become apparent on the long finish."
