The wine has exactly that fresh, refined style that makes English sparkling increasingly popular: citrus, melon, fine bubbles, subtle toast and a hint of honey. Thanks to the classic blend and the dosage of 7 g\/l, this Brut remains crisp and fresh, but with enough depth and roundness to stand up well at the table.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-section-id=\"14jexaw\" data-start=\"560\" data-end=\"583\"\u003eVineyards and region\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"585\" data-end=\"656\"\u003eTinwood Estate is located near Halnaker, just outside Chichester in West Sussex.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"658\" data-end=\"868\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"658\" data-end=\"681\"\u003eLocation \/ Origin:\u003c\/strong\u003e The estate is located on the edge of the South Downs National Park.

The land came into the hands of Dutch farmer Aad Tukker in 1985, who initially grew iceberg lettuce there. In 2007, his son Art Tukker planted the first 28 acres with Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier, after which Tinwood grew into an estate with more than 110 acres of vineyard. This shift from salad to English sparkling makes Tinwood one of the more interesting modern wine stories from Southern England.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Eigen Import","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45455886057551,"sku":"0910","price":37.75,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0594\/9358\/0879\/files\/TinwoodBrutWestSussex2021.webp?v=1781102516","url":"https:\/\/perfectewijn.be\/en\/products\/tinwood-brut-west-sussex-2021","provider":"Perfecte Wijn","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
