By Glass of Bubbly / 19th February 2016

New arrival Exton Park is a 55 acre vineyard –one of the largest in the county – on the prized chalk slopes of the South Downs, above the Meon Valley. Over the past ten years, it has been gradually planted with Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier, according to different terroirs. All the Exton Park sparkling wines come from this one, single vineyard. French-born Corinne Seely has been making wines at Exton Park, in a new state-of-the-art winery, since 2011. It was not until May 2015 that the first three award-winning wines were released –non vintage blends from the past few years. In September, two Vintages from the 2011 harvest, Blanc de Blancs and Rose, were added to the range.
