2019 Vintage Brut Premier

VINTAGE 2019 – a cooler vintage perfect for ripening grapes for sparkling. Good natural acid retention alongside bright and delicate fruit flavours.

VARIETIES 55% Pinot Noir; 45% Chardonnay

APPEARANCE Pale straw colour with green tints, brilliant clarity, ultra-fine and persistent bead.

AROMA Complex savoury aromas of mushroom, oyster shell & fresh pastry overlay fruit characters of grapefruit, pink lady & citrus blossom..

PALATE  Made in the traditional method, this wine has spent over 4 years on lees in bottle prior to disgorgement.  This extended contact time allows for more complex characters and textures to evolve – with baked bread, crème fraiche and mushroom notes complementing delicate sea spray, grapefruit and frangipani.  A beautifully soft and delicate mousse and fine, persistent bead carry the flavours and continually refresh the palate.

OAK DETAIL The base wine was partially fermented in seasoned French oak barriques and puncheons to help build texture and mouthfeel.

CELLARING Ready for immediate drinking and will continue to evolve and drink well over the next 2-3 years.
