A pale-salmon colour, fine bead with good yeasty complexity and flavour. Time on lees has certainly provided a delicate but noticeable touch of savoury autolysis, too, which all adds up to some mighty fine drinking. Aromas of acacia, cherry, dried cranberry with watermelon inflection throughout. The palate has excellent layering of flavour and texture with poached quince, spiced apple, shortbread, stone fruits and tart cranberries. Long and brisk.

100% biodynamic, organic-certified Pinot Noir from the estate vineyard in Granton. Traditional method sparkling wine, which spent three years on lees and was disgorded with a low dosage of 4 to 5g/L.
Being 100% Pinot Noir, this wine shows floral notes and red berry characteristics, balanced by both the mouth-watering acidity and subtle tannins. The incredible structure and length are achieved by the Traditional Method wine making, that Steve Lubiana follows for all of his sparkling wines. A wonderful food wine, and luscious salmon pink hue is perfect for all celebrations.
