We have combined 3 different Chardonnay clones to add elegance and depth to this sparkling white wine. With a fine bead and a vivacious palate, we hope you love it as much as we do.
Blanc de Blancs typically express elegance and this wine is no exception. The palate is brisk and fresh, light brioche notes supporting an austere chalk driven mineral structure with a lively citrus texture.
Truly a wine for celebration, oysters, seafood platters and plenty of laughter.

93 Wine Orbit- “Gorgeously styled and expressed, showing golden apple, lemon zest, almond meal and white floral aromas, leading to a finely flowing palate that is creamy and persistent. Beautifully framed.”- Sam Kim January 2024
90 Halliday- “White nectarine, white apple and pear flesh and overtones of star fruit. The clean-cut chardonnay fruit brings light and brightness to the palate with a careful hand finishing the wine dry and crisp. A moreish wine and cleverly put together.”- Shanteh Wale February 2024
Campbell Mattinson December 2022- “The good thing here is that you get flavour, and a good deal of it, but you also get a dry finish, which both keeps you coming back and makes it a good match with food. Stonefruit and pear flavours are the motor for this wine, though they are tempered by citrus and gently complexed by pastry-like notes. It works well.”
