Description
Vineyard Region: | King Valley and Tumbarumba |
---|---|
Wine Analysis: | Alc/Vol: 12.5% |
Colour: | This current release sparkling wine has an attractive pale green-gold colour. |
Aroma: | Fresh, lively aromas of pear and apple. |
Palate: | The wine explodes in the mouth – a soft creamy feeling that is a direct result of the very fine bubble. The green apple flavours carry through to the palate with lemon citrus notes accompanied by the soft creaminess and a delicate and refreshing acid on the finish. |
Peak Drinking: | Until 2024 |
Recommended food pairings: This wine makes an ideal aperitif or as an accompaniment to a range of appetisers. Delightful with natural oysters drizzled with a lemon juice. It would also be ideal with smoked salmon and caviar blinis. Try it with shallow fried calamari with a lemon and dill mayonnaise.
Growing Conditions: This wine is a blend of different parcels of Pinot Noir 56%, Chardonnay 29% & Pinot Meunier 15%, from cool climate vineyards in the King Valley and Tumbarumba. All fruit was hand picked and gently whole bunch pressed to minimise contact between the juice and the grape skins and seeds.
Winemaking notes: 100% of the fruit underwent malolactic fermentation and after vintage the various wines were assembled and assessed. The selected blend then underwent secondary fermentation in the bottle. The wine spent three years on yeast lees to add complexity and allow greater merging of aged and yeast autolysis characters. It was then disgorged, liqueured and bottled with an alcohol level of 12.5%. Vegan-friendly.

“Hand-picked fruit, whole-bunch pressed, mlf, second fermentation in bottle and aged on lees for 3 years. A blend of pinot noir, chardonnay and pinot meunier sourced from King Valley, Tumbarumba and Yarra Valley. Another impressive NV release, replete in complex florals and citrus with a layer of yeasty complexity, toast and grilled nuts. Pinot meunier brings an added light touch of confection. Fine acidity tingles.”
