The wine

An intense nose of lemon curd, pastry and vanilla. Medium bodied, with fresh lemon behind.

KC2 and KC4 are two clones of Chardonnay grown in the same vineyard and bottled separately, so what separates them is plant material rather than ground. Clonal selection is one of the least visible decisions in winemaking and one of the most consequential: two clones on identical soil can give quite different wines. Whitewolfe Estates work a south-facing vineyard whose microclimate protects it against heat spikes, so the fruit ripens steadily rather than in bursts.

The producer

Whitewolfe Estates is a boutique English producer in the heart of Kent, part of the new wave of quality winemaking transforming the country's reputation. The focus is on still Chardonnay, crafted with precision to express England's cool, maritime climate.

Kent's chalk and clay soils and long, gentle growing season give the fruit its bright acidity and finesse. Small parcels are handled with care to preserve freshness and detail rather than chase weight.

The KC2 and KC4 Chardonnays are the estate's calling cards, cool-climate whites of citrus, minerality and quiet elegance that reward the attentive drinker.

Fresh, refined and proudly English, these are wines that show just how far the country's winemaking has come. Discover the poise of Kent Chardonnay.
