Coldstream Hills has been making sparkling wine, albeit in small quantities, since 1995. The first release of the wine was a Blanc de Noir, but in more recent times, it has been a more traditional blend of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.
The south facing slopes of the Deer Farm Vineyard at Gladysdale provide an ideal source for Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes. The fruit was hand-picked and gently pressed prior to fermentation. Following secondary fermentation, the wine spent close to five years on yeast lees prior to disgorging and release.

Fine and restrained with subtle lemony Chardonnay notes and hints of Pinot perfume. Time on lees has given rise to attractive secondary notes of breadcrust and fresh toast.
Lovely fine bead leading to a beautiful balance of acidity and dosage liqueur. Restrained, yet layered and complex, the palate has great presence and length of flavour. An outstanding year for sparkling from the Deer Farm Vineyard.
