Rockferry Blanc de Blancs 2016, Marlborough

Though it doesn’t say it on the label this wine is a methode traditionnelle made from 100% Chardonnay fruit.

A lovely yellow gold hue leads to aromas of lemon pie, peach, apple and a distinctive leesy autolysis. Very inviting, youthful with a fine youthful complexity. On the palate are flavours of lemon peel and peach, apple and grapefruit then a fine leesy autolysis layering in texture, a touch of spice and flavours. High acidity, refreshing mouthfeel and dry on the finish. The mousse is elegant with an abundance of small bubble carrying the citrus and crisp apple flavours then leesy brioche moments. Balanced and well made with best drinking upon release and through 2025+.
