"A beautifully styled and composed Méthode, the inviting bouquet shows white stone fruit, lemon peel and apple blossom characters with subtle yeasty complexity.

"Number 1 Southern Hemisphere - Value Bubbles from around the World" Wine Spectator, Dec 2016

"A masterful sparkling with abundantly fresh nectarine, white peach and lemon citrus. The palate swings more into grapefruit territory and holds a neat, fresh and zesty stance. A savoury and stony finish. Drink now" Nick Stock, jamessuckling.com, Nov 2017

"Bright, light golden-hued straw-yellow colour with pale green-gold hues on the rim, the bubbles very fine and moderately persistent The nose is full and up-front with bold and accessible aromas of yellow stonefruits melded with good intensity of fresh, bready-yeasty autolysis, the aromatics forming a deep core with presence and a hint of minerals. Dry to taste and medium-bodied, the palate is elegantly presented with a finely concentrated core of white and yellow stonefruits entwined with restrained bready-yeasty autolysis. The fruit is rich and is complexed by a firm thread of bready elements at the core, and the wine flows along a very fine-textured phenolic line. The effervescence adds a gentle creaminess, which carries to a rich and succulent, lingering finish with soft acidity. This is a beautifully balanced method Traditionnelle with stonefruit and bready-yeasty complexities on a creamy palate. Serve as an aperitif and with seafood over the next 2-3 years" Candice Chow, Raymond Chan Wine Reviews, Jul 2018

"Tropical richness and herbal notes on the nose. The palate boasts generous, crunchy red berry fruits and lightly toasted pistachio nuts. A welcome tangy lemon note brings freshness. A good fizz for food" Decanter Magazine, New World Sparkling, Nov 2016

Pale yellow in the glass. The bouquet is perfumed with royal gala apple aromas with a hint of lime and brioche. Flirtatious and moreish, the palate is enhanced by an invigorating cool, creamy acidity.
