Full of sparkle
"England's most exclusive Pink Fizz", Balfour Brut Rosé is grown on Hush Heath Estate from three classic Champagne varieties - Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier.
Hidden from the world by a giant cordon sanitaire of of ancient woodland, the flavour and philosophy of Balfour Brut Rosé owes much to its historic setting. The fine soils, mild climate and long history of fruit growing, has made the Weald of Kent home to the finest vineyards planted in the UK in the last 50 years.
"My aim is to make the finest Rosé Sparkling Wine, comparable with the great Rosé Champagnes. The passion and enthusiasm by everyone involved with Balfour Brut Rosé has led to us winning a number of prestigious international awards."
Richard Balfour-Lynn, Producer
