Delamere NV Sparkling Cuvee

$40.00

A blend of 69/31% chardonnay/pinot noir, with 20% reserve wine blended into the ’23 base. Pale straw with a fine, energetic bead. Crunchy green apple, lemon, grapefruit and stone fruits with hints of sea spray, almond meal, crushed shells, meadow flowers, crème fraîche and apple turnover. Tight and finely poised, with energy to burn from the briny acidity. Those pure stone, apple and citrus fruits draw long and true on the finish. 94 points – Dave Brookes, Halliday Wine Companion

 

Handpicked, whole bunch pressed with 100% MLF, the NV Cuvée is made using the traditional method of bottle fermentation. Blending, a key aspect of this wine, is always focused on retaining the distinctive fruit characteristics whilst balancing the more complex flavours that come with wine maturation in barrel and on yeast lees. The varietal blend is 69% Chardonnay and 31% Pinot Noir, with 20% reserve wine blended into the 2023 base. The reserve blend consists of 2% 2022, 7% 2021, 4% 2020, 9% 2005-2019 (perpetual reserve). Tirage Date: September 2023, Disgorgement Date: 14/05/2025 (20 months tirage-age).
