Best Sparkling Trophy 2023 Adelaide Wine Show | Best Sparkling Trophy 2023 Royal Hobart Wine Show | Best Sparkling 2023 NSW Wine Awards. A beautiful expression of what the growing season was up to. 65% Chardonnay, 35% Pinot Noir it spends 7 years in the bottle, with a little bit of barrel fermented Chardonnay as the dosage. 2015 was a cool year, which makes this wine reminiscent of a lemon meringue pie – biscuity pie base, a sharp lemon curd through line topped off with a gentle bead.

ALC 12.0%, pH 3.05, TA 9.4g/L, DOSAGE 5.25g/L

After 7 years of lees ageing this wine has developed wonderful complexity. Now that it has been disgorged it will continue develop but down a different road – more along the lines of typical bottle maturation. It should drink well as it evolves over the next 5 years.
