Grown, vinified, bottled and hand-disgorged on site. Methodé traditionnelle. A testament to the world-class quality of the Pipers River region for sparkling wine production. Rich, toasty and nutty aromas with brioche, earthy notes and sea brine. Long and fine with a creamy mouthfeel. A wine of classic structure.

This unique single-vineyard wine has been grown, vinified, bottled and hand-disgorged on site. The wine is the result of carefully hand- harvested fruit from the mature-aged chardonnay vines of Delamere Vineyard, reflecting the site's distinctive soil and location. Maturation on lees for a minimum of four years is a critical part of Delamere Vineyards house style. A small percentage of oak matured reserve chardonnay has been blended in to increase complexity and richness. The wine is the epitome of elegance and finesse, displaying candied-lemon fruit character with underlying flavours of toasty brioche and earthiness. The palate shows classic cool climate structure; it is long and fine with a creamy mouth-feel that comes from 100% malo-lactic fermentation and careful maturation on lees. Sadly, the volume of the 2006 is very limited (see Vintage Conditions below) with only 150 cases to go around.
