This wine shows a persistent fine bead and generous mousse. The complex bouquet displays layers of stone fruit and almond biscuit. The palate has great structured length and superb balance. This wine is ready to enjoy now but careful cellaring for up to five years should produce an even softer, more elegant wine. Enjoy this wine with fresh Tasmanian oysters.

| Vineyard_Info | Clover Hill Vineyard is in Tasmania’s Pipers River, an area becoming acknowledged as the premier source of sparkling wine in Australia. It is ideally suited for growing the holy trinity”of sparkling varietals; chardonnay, pinot noir and pinot meunier. The 66-hectare property overlooking Bass Strait has a similar climate to the Champagne region of France, with mild autumn temperatures with maximums in the low 20°C and minimums around 10ºC. The climate creates a long ripening period, which allows the fruit to accumulate intense flavour balanced with fine acidity. Vines are close-spaced and planted in deep, red volcanic soil in a frost-free amphitheatre, orientated north/south to maximise sunlight exposure.
