"Smells yeasty and toasty and has a lovely burst of sherbety lemon characters filling the mouth."
Winestate Magazine, March 2009
Pale yellow in colour, the bouquet is clean, fresh fruit and slightly floral aromas with underlying yeasty, bread dough notes giving complexity.
On the palate the fine bubbles provide a creamy texture, while the delicate acidity balances the fresh fruit.
Fruit was sourced from selected vineyards in the Riverina and King Valley. It was harvested in early January which allowed the fruit to retain its natural acidity important for Sparkling wine. The Chardonnay and Pinot Noir are picked in the cool of the night to help retain freshness, with the Pinot component handled oxidatively to help lower the red colour pigments. Both Chardonnay and Pinot Noir are fermented warm to give complexity. The blend is then run through secondary fermentation in tank - Charmat to add bubbles and creamy texture.
Best enjoyed young but will age well over next two years. Try with hors d’ourves or oysters.
