2006 Vintage to be released in January 2008
This maiden vintage is 100% Chardonnay and has a fine pale straw colour with a tint of golden syrup in the centre. On the nose there are delicate hints of lime, toffee and biscuit which will grow in intensity as the wine ages. The palate shows a sparkling, fine mousse together with well balanced acidity and a clean, refreshing after taste.
