Jackson Family Wines, known for its prime estates in California, announces a new wine project in Essex, England. Despite the county's reputation for jokes, it is now gaining recognition for producing high-quality still wines. The project will involve planting 65 acres of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir in the Crouch Valley.
California’s Jackson Family Wines owns more than 40 prime estates from Napa to Saint-Émilion. So its recent announcement of a new wine project in Essex was considered a curveball by some. For this clay-bound county in south-east England is often better known for being the butt of jokes than a seat for vines – but the growing consensus is that “ England ’s Côte-d’Or” is now producing some of its best still wines .
Standing in the box-fresh winery, I taste the new 2021 Chardonnay , a luscious, almost tropical white with a perky acidity and subtle saltiness; and the fantastic 2021 Pinot Noir that has a concentration and elegance still rare in English reds. There is a single-vineyard Chardonnay called Octagon Block, which is designed for longer cellaring. I also had a preview of Solstice, which will be Danbury’s stab at a sparkling.
