Maypole Sparkling
The Maypole happily captures the joys of an English spring and summer, expressed in this classic sparkling blend, with 5 years on lees giving ribbons of bubbles that dance in the glass in this frothily festive fizz. It is layered, gently mature yet still fresh.
Production
This wine is made by the talented team at Henners who have created a blend which has more Pinot Noir than the Henners Brut wines. The blend composition is 44% Chardonnay, 41% Pinot Noir and 15% Pinot Meunier and the wine has spent 5 years on lees before recent disgorgement.
Tasting notes
Lots of crisp apple and pear fruit characters on the palate with a fine, persistent mousse. There’s a long finish which shows some biscuity development along with characteristic, balanced acidity.
Food match
Perfect for summer celebrations!
When it comes to English wine there’s a lot to shout about, not least the stunning sparkling wines from Henners. Based just 4 miles from the sea in Herstmonceux, East Sussex, the 7 acre vineyard was created in 2007 by ex-Formula One engineer, Lawrence Warr. The winery was named in honour of Larry’s French ancestor, Henners Dubois, who was forced to flee Paris for England during the French Revolution in the in the late 18th Century.
All Henners wines are hand-crafted from start to finish; with separate fermenting of varietals and their vine clones to allow a broader range of wines for final blending; extended lees ageing for added complexity; and holding back of all bottles for at least 3 years prior to release to add depth and richness to every wine. Hand-crafted with every attention to detail, our winemakers create award winning wines of depth, complexity and elegance that are perfect for any occasion.
