Tasting Notes

Delicate pale lime colour. The aroma has lifted character of meringue and delicate white flowers. The palate is soft and mouth-filling, with a generous explosion of bubbles.

Vinification Details.

Following fermentation of the base wine, the blending is done to achieve the desired character & softness. The wine is then fermented a second time, causing the bubbles to form. The wine is bottled after aging for a short while on yeast.

Producer Information

Located in central Victoria, Mitchelton's first vines were planted in the early 1970s after Australian wine industry legend Colin Preece identified an old patch of grazing land known as Blackwood Park as having great winemaking potential. Not only had the land never seen vines before but the company's decision to focus on Rhone varietals - including whites like Marsanne and Viognier - was almost unheard of at the time. This pioneering spirit continues to this day with new winemaker Ben Haines at the controls.


Regional info.

Like most sparkling wine in the world, this is made using the technique of blending wines from different vintages. It is a blend of wines made in 2005, 2004 & 2003. This is great way to increase complexity of flavour. Harvested when the flavours are citrussy & crisp & kept separate until later.
