Intro to Langham Chardonnay –
Made in Dorset, this is their first still 100% Chardonnay from the outstanding and sunny 2018 vintage. Made thanks to spontaneous fermentation, unfined and unfiltered.
On the nose it has aromas of kiwi and melon, with fresh salinity and wet stone on the palate. The finish is rich and creamy leaving a long satisfying finish.
The producer –
At the heart of the Langham Estate sits the magnificent Bingham’s Melcombe manor house, Grade I listed and little changed since the reign of Edward VI. Acquired by John Langham in 1980, Bingham’s Melcombe became the centre point for the Langham Agricultural Enterprise, today comprising over 1,000 hectares.
The Langham vineyard was originally established by John Langham on a very small scale. In 2009 John’s son, Justin Langham, decided to develop his father’s rudimental vineyard into a commercial venture, and planted 30 acres of land at their Crawthorne farm.
All the Langham Estate wines are made using grapes from their own estate at their single vineyard in rural Dorset. The Crawthorne vineyard consists of twelve hectares that are panted with the three classic Champagne varieties of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier. The site was carefully selected for its south facing slope which is composed of the same chalk, clay and flint soils that are found in the Champagne region.
