2019 Vintage Brut Premier

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

Nose 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.

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