PALATE

A fruit driven palate of wild berries, peach, and lemon sherbet. A fine mousse and balanced acidity round out the soft finish.

VINTAGE

The 2024 growing season began with stable weather and nice cloud cover coupled with moderate evening temperatures during Spring. However, December to February presented heavy rainfall up to 70mm prior to the critical flowering period. Being located further down in elevation proved crucial during this time as the Dexter vineyard retained good quality fruit and concentration. Cool temperatures during late summer produced ideal ripening and the grapes retained high levels of natural acidity along with great concentration of flavour.

WINEMAKING

This cool climate site is ideal for producing sparkling wine.  The grapes were whole bunch pressed in an airbag press on a
gentle pressing cycle to minimise phenolic extraction. The juice was fermented in stainless steel tanks. The wine was triaged,
bottled in July 2024 with the finished alcohol after secondary fermentation at 11%. The wine spent 14 months on yeast lees prior to disgorgement in September 2025.
