The Petaluma Croser Adelaide Hills Sparkling Brut NV is a premium sparkling wine crafted with care and precision using the traditional method, which is the same technique employed in Champagne production for centuries. This meticulous process, which includes fermenting, maturation, riddling, and disgorging all in the same bottle, is key to achieving the ultra-fine bubbles and complexity that make Croser sparkling wines stand out.

The wine presents a complex and elegant profile, with an alluring nose that combines the richness of honey and cashew, lifted by a citrus freshness. The palate showcases the wild strawberry Pinot characters, accompanied by a creamy, buttery touch of nectarine Chardonnay, which beautifully transitions into a soft yeasty finish buoyed by green apple acidity. This balance of fruit and creaminess makes it a delightful sparkling wine that offers both vibrancy and complexity.

The grapes used for this wine are carefully hand-harvested, ensuring only the finest fruit reaches the winery. Hand harvesting into small crates helps to avoid any damage to the grapes, preserving the delicate flavors and freshness. The cool-climate vineyards in the Adelaide Hills contribute to the wine's freshness and finesse, producing a sparkling wine that stands the test of time.

This 92-point-rated sparkling wine is a must-try for lovers of complex, elegant sparkling wines and pairs beautifully with oysters, smoked salmon, or light seafood dishes
