Domaine Evremond is the realisation of a shared dream between lifelong friends Pierre-Emmanuel Taittinger and Patrick McGrath to craft exceptional English Sparkling Wine of the highest quality.
Following the official launch of the Domaine Evremond winery in Chilham, Kent in September 2024, we are thrilled to be bringing you the first wine, Domaine Evremond Classic Cuvée Edition I in spring 2025.
This exciting journey began in 2015 when two close friends, Patrick McGrath MW and Pierre-Emmanuel Taittinger agreed that they would establish a new English Sparkling Wine estate. Since then, the project has evolved: Domaine Evremond has grown from an idea, to a plot of land, to flourishing vineyards and now a dedicated winery, nestled among the vines of the Estate, that produces certified Quality English Sparkling Wine.
Situated in an area of outstanding natural beauty, the winery, along with the cellar door, is located at the heart of the estate.
Built with sustainability at the fore, the majority of the sympathetically designed winery is subterranean and provides a natural gravity-led winemaking process. The design allows an uncompromising approach to quality winemaking.
Kent, ‘The Garden of England’, is the spiritual home of Taittinger and the original site of Stone Stile Farm’s apple and pear orchards near the archetypal village of Chilham.
It was picked for its perfect combination of deep, free draining chalk soils, south facing slopes and the ideal altitude some 50 to 90m above sea level.
Vinification
- 55% Pinot Noir
- 35% Chardonnay
- 10% Pinot Meunier
The wine is fermented and matured entirely in stainless steel vats and undergoes malolactic fermentation. Three years aging in the bottle on the lees.
Tasting Notes
The Classic Cuvée expresses the heart and soul of Domaine Evremond. The Kentish terroir, with its chalky soils and oceanic influence, is expressed through the wine’s minerality and precision.
