A special late-disgorged edition of our 2017 Blanc de Blancs in 1.5L magnum.
2017 was a landmark vintage for Langham Wine Estate. Once through a difficult and frosty spring, it went on to become our largest harvest to date (though just a year later to be usurped by the famous 2018), with a growing season that blessed us with excellent fruit in the first vintage of our new era of low-intervention sparkling winemaking. Pressed oxidatively, fermented spontaneously and matured in a higher proportion of old oak, this is the style for which we are now renowned, and delicious validation for what felt at the time like a particularly daring approach.

100% Chardonnay
Opulent and generous on the nose, with notes of toasted sourdough, candied peel, granola and porcini mushroom. The palate is beautifully poised, showing the balance of creaminess and bright acidity in flavours of gooseberry fool, mandarin peel and roasted peach.
