Owned and run by Lawrence Warr, Henners is the result of a long term dream to produce the finest English Sparkling Wine. Lawrence started his career as an automotive engineer in the exciting world of Formula One. Having left Formula One, to set up an engineering consultancy, the search for the perfect vineyard site began. The search was a lengthy and dedicated one - as the ideal combination of soils, aspect, slope, altitude and microclimate was difficult to find. After two years he found the site at Herstmonceux, East Sussex. The vineyard was planted in May 2007, with the winery following in 2009.
Produced only in exceptional vintages this Blanc de Blancs is a blend of 100% chardonnay. Aged on lees for a minimum of 36 months our Blanc de Blancs typifies the linear purity of this classic style. Selected from the finest lots of Chardonnay, ensuring that the wine has the fruit character, structure and elegance required for extended ageing. Only 5,000 bottles produced.
