"A remarkable and unique English sparkling wine. Juice-dripping peaches and apricot almost syrupy in it's richness - but it's not sweet, just lush in texture. Balanced by a salted-cream, brown butter savoury richness. An arresting burst of scented Bramley acidity. We could go on and on... this is something else!" Oz Clarke and Tom Surgey, English Wine Heroes 2026.

Sensational small production release from Danbury Ridge. Notes of malt, and baked apple pie, buttery pastry, with layers of fruit and complexity, with some delicious oxidative notes, with a fine core of acidity, it is rather different from the other English fizzes we know, which are crisper. Although this is still completely dry. At just over 4g/l dosage, that puts it in the extra brut category (if Champagne) and make it drier that most English sparklings. A triumph!
