Ridgeview Merret Bloomsbury 2007 England

The Bloomsbury is Ridgeview’s’ signature wine, made up of 64% Chardonnay, 23% Pinot Noir and 14% Pinot Meunier.

On the nose, the beautiful aroma of buttered brioche hits me instantly, as found with many of the great vintage Champagnes.

In appearance, the wine is light and appealing, with a clean, fresh and crisp flavour on the palate, expected with the Chardonnay’s dominance, but backed up brilliantly with the Pinot grapes, adding a long and sophisticated finish.
