On Monday I spent a glorious day in the Kent countryside at Hush Heath vineyard, where owner Richard Balfour-Lynn unveiled his shiny new winery to a large chunk of the wine trade, including the newly-honoured Gerard Basset OBE. After a leisurely lunch and an amble across the 30 acre estate, I caught up with Balfour-Lynn, who owns the Hotel du Vin and Malmaison hotel chains, to quiz him about English sparkling wine and his ambitions for the estate.
