| Vineyard Region | Tasmania |
| Wine Analysis | Alc/Vol: 12% |
| Colour | This sparkling wine is a pale straw colour with a fine and persistent bead. |
| Aroma | Crisp apples and citrus lift are balanced by bready and biscuity autolysis notes from lees ageing. |
| Palate | Vibrant acidity adds drive to a full and rich mid-palate, vigorous mousse and a slaty, mineral persisting finish. |
| Peak Drinking | Drinking well now, it will continue to improve over the next 3-4 years. |
| Growing Conditions | The wine is made from Chardonnay 55%, and Pinot Noir 45%, grown in Tasmania’s Tamar Valley. When grown in areas that experience cool ripening conditions the varieties produce sparkling wines of finesse, elegance and delicacy of flavour. |
