Made from estate-grown Pinot Noir, it opens with vanilla cream, fine pastry, toasted brioche and fresh Alpine strawberry, with a little red apple, honeyed citrus and chalky brightness underneath.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOn the palate, it is dry, elegant and quietly luxurious, with creamy texture balanced by crisp Kentish freshness. The Pinot Noir brings depth and savoury weight, while extended lees ageing adds toast, pastry and a smooth, persistent finish. This is serious English fizz with polish, generosity and a lovely sense of celebration.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFor when\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe occasion calls for Champagne energy, but with a distinctly English signature.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePairs with\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSmoked salmon, crab, scallops, fried chicken, roast poultry, sushi, lobster rolls, Comté or delicate canapés.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSimpsons Wine Estate is based in the Elham Valley in Kent, where Charles and Ruth Simpson have helped define the new confidence of English wine. Their vineyards sit on the lime-rich chalk ridge that runs through southern England and on towards Champagne and Burgundy, with south-facing slopes and coastal influence bringing ripeness, freshness and balance. Flint Fields comes from estate-grown Pinot Noir on these chalk soils, showing why the North Downs have become one of England’s most exciting sparkling wine landscapes.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wine Republic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54799797027201,"sku":null,"price":39.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0916\/0513\/9841\/files\/WineRepublicimage-26_08d27a2c-7024-4495-b50a-4d6574cdcc77.png?v=1780416651","url":"https:\/\/www.wine-republic.co.uk\/products\/2021-flint-fields-blanc-de-noirs-simpsons-wine-estate","provider":"Wine Republic","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
