Pair with sashimi - pure bliss, or start the day with a bang and have it with fancy scrambled eggs with smoked trout and snow pea shoots.
How is the wine made?
We ensure the grapes stay cold and fresh by harvesting them in the cool of the dawn. We crush them up a little and then press out all the juice. The juice was cold settled for 48 hours before being racked off solids so that we are only using the super clear and bright juice. We use a selected yeast strain to ferment long and cool which helps us achieve a crisp, aromatic, delicious Prosecco! The base wine then has to undergo a secondary fermentation under pressure so that the natural CO2 that is created is captured in the wine and voila you have creamy tight little bubbles!
Does this wine spend any time in oak barrels?
Nope - all stainless tank for this baby.

Winemakers Comments
For us this Prosecco was all about creating a crisp, clean sparkling true to the Italian style. Prosecco can be quite neutral however, so it was important for us to create some interest and excitement with elevated aromatics on the nose and palate. We also kept it on the dryer side.

“Prosecco shimmies and shines in this bright, exuberant prosecco dressed in fresh-cut apple, pear and citrus. Combines energy, a fast-paced mousse and clean, bright fruit presence. The palate's texture is supple but also marked by crunchy, enlivening acidity that perks the tastebuds right up. What more can we ask?”

"Light yellow hue, bright, with vigorous mousse. The aroma is fresh and clean, scented with icing sugar, the palate flavoursome and fruity with a tickle of sweetness and a slight tannin grip. Imparting a dryness to the finish. A very tasty prosecco, a top example."

“Big cheesy nose, spiced vanilla oak, sweet on the finish. [Annette Lacey MW]. Clean and complex enough. Lovely drink and commercially appealing.” [Nick Butler].

"Very pale colour. The bouquet is savoury, straw-like, freshly laundered cotton sheets. A whisper of lemon juice. The palate is light and crisp, very dry and slightly firm thanks to lively acidity, simple and pleasing to drink."
Jane Faulkner - Halliday Wine Companion 2022

“In a way, it's revealed itself more as a sparkling white than prosecco yet it is ultra-fresh and lively. A hint of just-cut Granny Smith apple, dried herbs, a twist of lemon and spritely acidity.”
