Racy like the coupe, this is curve hugging Champagne-method spumante full of velocità and terribilita. Yes, like the...
100% chardonnay. Very fresh and dry. Has a touch of that smokey brioche on the nose. Minerality is there and lingers...

Bright gold in colour with a medium+ intense nose & fine mousse.
Simply delicious! A nice balance between Champagne and Prosecco

This traditional method sparkling wine is made with Chardonnay and spent 24 months on the lees. It has a medium-high intensity nose of bready, brioche, and lemon citrus characters, all of which comes through nicely on the dry, medium-bodied palate, supported by clean, balanced, and fresh acidity. It has a nice mouthfeel, leading to a long, lip-smacking, citrusy finish. Tasted Sept/2019.
