Balfour, Albarino 2022, Kent, England

Grape variety: Albarino

Region: Kent, England

An English rarity that’s not to be missed, Balfour’s first ever Albariño release (and one of only a handful of examples ever made in England) is a remarkable expression of the grape’s English potential. You’ll find a textbook zesty, citrus quality tempered by a slight saline minerality. Described by noted wine writer, Henry Jefferies, as one of England’s “most important” wines, this new take on the Galician grape variety is not to be missed.

Hidden deep in the Garden of England, the Balfour Hush Heath Estate comprises 400 acres of perfectly manicured vineyards, apple orchards and ancient oak woodlands rich with wildlife, flora and fauna.
