This super-charged, flavour-filled Blanc de Blancs style has plenty of zest and puckering freshness! It sings in the absence of preservatives. Crisp and ripe flavours of pineapple, apple and white peach are balanced by a creamy texture from a little extra time spent maturing on the lees. This well-balanced fizz makes the perfect first pour to pair with canapes or as an aperitif to kick off a great night ahead.

Origin: Australian Sparkling comes from… Australia. Don’t say we never teach you anything. Mainly Grown In: Often found in Victoria, New South Wales, the ACT, South Australia, Western Australia, Tasmania... sometimes even Queensland. But never NT. Sorry. Key Facts: Australia has been making sparkling wine since the late 1800s, and some of the first bottles to be produced were actually sparkling red, a style that has stuck with us until today! In the mid 50s the production of the sparkling wines we know today really took off, and the market for it increased – in other words, people got to drinking! The style has been refined over the decades, and now Australia makes world-class sparkling wines, traditionally based on Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. The style is dry, with flavours of baked bread and green apple, with really lovely, juicy acidity. Great stuff. Fun Fact: Australia has been recognised as great sparkling wine country by the Champagne cognoscenti – Domaine Chandon (of Moët et Chandon) set up shop in the Yarra Valley in 1986, and has made great wines ever since.
