Why It’s On Our Shelves
Fresh, refined & beautifully balanced — a modern English Chardonnay with purity and finesse
Produced in Norfolk by Cobble Hill →
Cobble Hill Chardonnay 2023 is a vibrant and polished expression of cool-climate English Chardonnay, grown on the estate’s flint and gravel-rich slopes in Norfolk. Crafted with precision and a light winemaker’s touch, this is a Chardonnay that champions freshness, clarity and balance over heavy oak, resulting in a wine that feels elegant, pure and unmistakably English.
The 2023 vintage opens with bright aromas of lemon zest, green apple, white peach and subtle floral notes, supported by a gentle mineral edge that reflects Cobble Hill’s unique terroir. On the palate, it is crisp and beautifully focused, offering layers of citrus and orchard fruit with a lightly rounded texture and clean, refreshing acidity. Any oak influence is subtle and restrained, enhancing the wine’s structure without overpowering its freshness.
Chardonnay 2023 is an outstanding example of how the variety can shine in a cool Norfolk climate — expressive, modern and effortlessly drinkable.
