What it pairs with

  • Roast turbot
    A serious, structured blanc de blancs needs a serious fish course.
  • Lobster with butter
    The wine's length and texture stand up to rich shellfish.
  • Aged hard cheese
    Racy acidity cuts nutty crystalline cheese and lengthens the finish.

Frequently asked about Cuvee Boz Blanc de Blancs

Who is Boz?

Barry Ben Sugrue, Dermot Sugrue's late brother, known affectionately as Boz. The cuvee is named in his memory.

Why are there several Cuvee Boz bottlings?

Sugrue bottles separate single-site expressions, including Coldharbour, Jenkyn Place and Mount Harry, so each release shows one vineyard rather than a blend.

How long should Cuvee Boz be cellared?

It is made only in the best vintages and crafted with long cellar ageing in mind, so it rewards a decade or more from vintage.
