Description
Vibrant yet understated, this fizz suits a Tuesday evening at home as splendidly as at a party celebrating one of life’s big moments.
An engaging expression of Digby’s house style, it stems from England’s most luscious Pinot Noir blended with rich, aged Chardonnay and plummy Pinot Meunier.

Head Blender notes:
“This is the bold yet charming jester of the Digby gang. With Pinot Noir at its core providing a round, rich, open heart, it forms a perfect contrast with our flagship blend, the Vintage Reserve Brut, which is centred on taut, mineral-driven Chardonnay.”
