Exton Park to Release the First English Sparkling Wine Aged in the Sea

Anne Krebiehl MW, 15.03.2022

Hampshire's Exton Park is the first British estate to age sparkling wine below the sea – but unlike Champagne, the bottles were aged on their lees.

The 60-acre estate on the chalklands of Hampshire prides itself on using only estate-grown fruit and on having built up a substantial library of reserve wines, dating back to the first vintage in 2011. Most of the production of Exton Park is thus multi-vintage blends based on a large proportion of aged reserve wines.
