Product Highlights
Six years on yeast lees is a persuasive starting point for a sparkling wine. Warramate’s 2019 release has been given that time to build texture and complexity, bringing something particularly appealing to the range from Yarra Yering’s neighbour. It is the estate’s first sparkling release, made under Sarah Crowe’s direction.
The blend is 55% Pinot Meunier and 45% Chardonnay. Meunier brings fruit intensity and richness, while Chardonnay contributes freshness and length. Hand-picked fruit is whole-bunch pressed, with the base wines spending eight months in older barrels before blending. Secondary fermentation takes place in bottle, followed by the long rest on lees before disgorgement.
The result brings baked apple and strawberry together with the warmth of apple strudel and toasted lees character. A fine bead carries its generous flavour, with Chardonnay’s freshness keeping the palate moving. Campbell Mattinson awarded it 92 points for The Wine Front and singled out the generosity of its aroma and flavour.
A distinctive Yarra Valley sparkling with years of work behind every bottle. What a charmer!
