TASTING NOTES
This fresh sparkling wine has aromas of citrus, pear, orange blossom, lime leaf and some nutty notes. On the palate it offers creaminess and a fine mousse with flavours of Granny Smith apple, pink grapefruit, melon and a hint of white pepper.
VINEYARD NOTES
Chardonnay & Pinot Noir both have been cane pruned and then shoot and fruit thinned to produce 2.9 short tons per acre of Chardonnay and 1.75 short tons per acre of Pinot Noir.
WINEMAKER NOTES
2016 Pinot Noir was whole cluster pressed and fermented in neutral barrels to age on lees for 16 months. Chardonnay, Chardonnay Musqué and Pinot Noir from the 2017 vintage were harvested, whole-cluster pressed and fermented separately. The 2016 vintage (18% of the Pinot Noir) was blended with the 2017, bringing weight, texture and depth to the finished wine.
