"Preserved lemons with a whisper of apricot. Subtle nose but rather attractive: bush roses come with time. Great mousse. Mouthfilling richness; powerful baked apples. Nicely balanced with excellent length of flavour. Quite a lot going on here. Just a whisper off dry" Mark Henderson, Otago Daily Times, Dec 2015

"This terrific little sparkler from Treviso has got summer camping trip written all over it.  With just enough florals and fruit on the nose to keep things interesting, followed by a twang of green apple, pear and peach on the palate, it’s a crunchy, cleansing sip that’ll keep even the most hot and flustered happy.  Again, at just 11 per cent alcohol, it’s unlikely to send you sideways" Yvonne Lorkin, Canvas Magazine, Oct 2015

Very pale straw yellow with a fine and persistent perlage. The aroma is fruity and flowery with hints of ripe golden apple and small mountain flowers. The dry, fresh and flavoursome sensation on the palate is followed by a fruity and harmonious aftertaste.

The whole grapes were put into the pneumatic press for soft pressing and the resulting must, was then put into vessels where fermentaition takes place at a controlled temperature of 15-16 to enhance all the harvest fragrances. Upon reaching the required alcohol and sugar content fermentation is stopped by refrigeration. After a short settling period the sparkling wine is ready for bottling.
