Heard it here first ... Christian Seely (AXA/Noval) making UK bubbly

Post by Roy Hersh »

That is correct, Christian Seely known here for turning around Quinta do Noval (but he's done it elsewhere too) is making Sparkling wine in the UK. I'd put my money on Mr. Seely that this venture will turn out to be a great success!

Those crazy Brits: :lol:

Christian told me about this idea last harvest and I nearly fell off my seat [shok.gif]

It's good to see that he is following this through and it will be very interesting to taste these wines. I have never tasted a UK wine but am willing to make an exception for Mr S :wink:
