Small parcels of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Blanc are hand picked and brought directly to the winery. Each parcel is pressed and fermented separately, creating an extensive selection of base wines to choose from. Winemaker Keith Hock then tastes each component and selects those base wines that show potential to produce exceptional wine. The cuvée is placed en tirage for secondary fermentation in the bottle prior to disgorgement. Finally, a small percentage of older reserve wine is included in the liqueur d'expedition adding further complexity and texture.
Radiant golden colour, fine bubbles aligned with a persistent crown. Fresh sensation with subtle scent of orange blossom exuded by Torrontés, together with fresh fruity notes such as green apple and pineapple stemming from Riesling. The wine opens dynamically, with minerals and medium volume, preserving freshness, and closes delicately acid. Fresh and elegant persistence.
