Black Chalk Classic, Hampshire 2022
Sparkling Wine from England - Hampshire
Save £24 per six-bottle case. Black Chalk are one of the most exciting producers of sparkling wine in England, with their elegant chardonnay-dominant, Hampshire chalk-derived Classic cuvée an exemplary example of just how good English sparkling wine can be. With a minimum of 22 months on the yeast lees this has now spent a year under cork and has developed more savoury umami, baked bread and spiced apple complexity to match the crisp citrus and mineral core. Thanks to the generosity of our suppliers, we’re delighted to offer a saving of £24 per six-bottle case. The supplier-supported saving is valid until 11.59pm, Friday 3rd July.

Black Chalk
As new faces to watch go, they don't come much newer than Black Chalk, a family owned and run winery based in Hampshire's beautiful Test Valley. Despite being the new kids on the block, this property has hit the ground running and bagged numerous prestigious accolades already: Gold at the International Wine and Spirits Championship, Overall Trophy Winner and Newcomer of the Year at the Wine GB Awards, Overall Winner at the Independent English Wine Awards, and Winner of our very own Wine Champions Competition earlier this year. Pretty impressive for what is only their second vintage!
Black Chalk was set up by Jacob Leadley and his brother-in-law Andrew Seden. Jacob, who left a comfortable job in London to retrain as a winemaker, was formerly making the wine at well-respected Hattingley Valley where he was already gaining a reputation. He and assistant winemaker, rising star Zoë Driver, craft their sparkling wines from the traditional blend of chardonnay, pinot noir and pinot meunier grown locally in the heart of the chalklands of Hampshire. Black Chalk are just getting started and we can't wait to watch them grow.
