When it comes to English wine there is a lot to shout about, not least the stunning award winning sparkling and still wines from Henners. Based just 4 miles from the sea in Herstmonceux, East Sussex, the 7 acre vineyard was created in 2007 by ex-Formula One engineer, Lawrence Warr. The winery was named in honour of Larry's French ancestor, Henners Dubois, who was forced to flee Paris for England during the French Revolution in the in the late 18th Century.

Planted with traditional Champagne varieties of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier, the vines thrive in an idyllic microclimate created by the vineyard's proximity to the sea, low altitude (only 24 metres above sea level) and steep, sunny, south facing slopes.

All Henners wines are hand-crafted from start to finish; with separate fermenting of varietals and their vine clones to allow a broader range of wines for final blending; extended lees ageing for added complexity; and holding back of all bottles for at least 3 years prior to release to add depth and richness to every wine.

Native Grace, produced from 100% Chardonnay from rows 78-87, which were identified during ripening and harvest as having outstanding potential for still wine production, with excellent sugar levels, lower acidity levels and displaying wonderful classic chardonnay fruit flavours.

Delicate aromas of elderflower and orchard fruits combine to provide a unique concentration of zesty lemon cream and crunchy green apple with a slight mineral finish.

Food match: Serve chilled with light meats, grilled fish and salads.
