Description & Technical Information
-
Sam and Ben Ellis founded Everflyht Vineyard in 2015, coming from a background in modern property development. The estate is ten hectares with three hectares planted in 2016 of the classic varieties Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Meunier. In 2021 an additional 3.8 hectares were planted. The young vines produced a small crop in 2018 and this wine was kept as reserve wine to be blended with the wines from the 2019 harvest to create their first non vintage blend based on 2019 blended with the wines from the first vintage.

The Everflyht Brut NV reflects the current estates planting and combines Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Meunier; hand-picked from the single estate vineyard and with "light touch" winemaking keeping each plot separate and using a mix of stainless steel tanks, old oak barrels and a handful of new oak to suit the fruit personality in each block. Fresh and generous in style, this traditional method wine has been aged for 20 months on the lees bringing a robust depth with a lasting elegance to the wine. The light smoky charm from reductive winemaking adds to the elegance and light touch style of these sparkling wines. Magnificent first release!

Winemaking: The Pinot Noir and Meunier were pressed and fermented together with the chardonnay pressed two days later. The juice was split between steel tanks, old Burgundy barrels (5th fill) and two new French oak barrels which was 14% of the total blend . After fermentation the wines were aged on the lees for 10 months, with some lees movement before blending and bottling in August 2020.

Weather in 2019: A mixed season but in the end the quality shone though, bud burst was normal in time, mid-April and was largely unaffected by frost. Flowering was positive with warm bright days during July and August. Veraison was in full flow by September which was cooler than normal this allowed for a longer and gentle ripening period which meant the skins were given time to gain a fantastic deep colour and phenolic profile that come harvest would translate into this elegant wine which reflects the grape blend and vintage.

Tasting Note: On the nose there are generous aromas of baked apple and red apple skin with bright lemon notes. Undertones of strawberry and raspberry are followed by complexity and depth rounding off the profile with fresh biscuit and baked shortbread. The palate offers a precise backbone and bright acidity which give’s this wine an elegance and finesse. This structure is perfectly complemented by ripe red apple, pear and buttery lemon tart and a mix of red summer fruits. Bready brioche and hints of fresh biscuit form the profile edge.

Expert Reviews
17/20
Tamlyn Currin
“So good! This walks the holy-grail tightrope for sparkling wines: autolysis, acidity, fruit, sweetness. This has a flair-flare of smoke and apple blossom on the nose, toasted (to almost burnt) brioche and crispy breadcrumbs, pan-roasted chopped hazelnuts, grapefruit, nectarine. Such clear-cut, ripe, diamond-bright fruit! We watched Paloma Faith live in concert on the weekend, watching her explosive energy and quirky personality as she cut that stage up with her insane dancing and prancing and her smoky-lazy-pewter-scratched-yuzu voice, and it pretty much sums this wine up.”
90/100
Tom Hewson
“Estate fruit from Ditchling, East Sussex. 2019 base with 2018 reserve wines. 45%. Chardonnay 45% Pinot Noir, 10% Meunier. 30% oak fermented. This has been carefully pitched, with a pleasingly fudgy, slightly oxidative dried and russet apple warmth at first, livened up with some lime and meadow flower notes. Some interesting complexity too, a spot of tangy strawberry fruit and savoury, chestnut-like notes with time in the glass, all framed with measured acidity. Stylish.
