The aim of this impressive West Aussie sparkler is to offer freshness and elegance and that is certainly how this wine drinks. The fruit comes from the cooler parts of Pemberton and Mount Barker. The wine spends twenty months on lees, is 100% Chardonnay and has a dosage of just three grams. The team is building a program of reserve wines. At the moment, this wine enjoys a perpetual reserve of 5%, but they will grow this to 10% down the track. The base for this wine is the 2023 vintage. Pale in colour, this is lean and fresh with hints of garden greens, sea breezes, spices, apples and freshly picked pears. There is good balance and intensity running the length and we see hints of citrus and grapefruit emerge towards the finish. Well focused, expect this wine to continue to impress over the next three to five years. Certainly, an aperitif style, but it would make an excellent pick-me-up at any time of the day.
Citrus-driven aromas of lemon peel, grapefruit, oyster shell, white orchard fruits and sourdough bread. The palate is light-bodied with a finely beaded mousse and a generous yet restrained texture, with lovely autolytic notes and a fruit-driven finish. A new release predominantly from the 2023 vintage, disgorged April 2025 with 2 g/L dosage after 18 months tirage. 100% chardonnay.

If you were going to pick a region to make super Blanc de Blancs sparkling wine then the Great Southern would have to be one of your go to regions thanks to its mix of both a cool climate and beautifully pristine environment which give superb purity of Chardonnay fruit. Mid straw in colour with a dusting of gold, it opens with beautifully elegant and precise aromas, from nectarine to florals and citrus well balanced with just cooked pastry bottle age influences. The palate is then bright, fresh and vibrant with a light, silky touch and crisp acid backbone before opening up to a soft finish accented by touches of buttered toast. A delicious aperitif, at any time of the day.
This is a blanc de blancs style made from 100% chardonnay. Has a nice crunchy lemon rind and citrus aroma that rolls with distinctive biscuit bready nuances. The palate is light and crisp with a very complete and pleasing mouth feel. There is texture but there is a fine linear feel that makes it such a refined elegant wine.
A delightful sparkling wine from chardonnay. It’s delicate but at the same time there is excellent flavour intensity through a complete and integrated middle palate. Lifted citrus and lemony characters with a distinctive biscuit edge on the finish. Clean crisp finish.

A 100% Chardonnay sparkling built on brisk acidity and offering plenty of bright, tangy fruit, which is no doubt the basis for the continuing rise and rise of the Blanc de Blancs market. It’s delivered in spades here. Generous in Chardonnay aromas of citrus and apple, florals of honeysuckle and chamomile, nut and baked quince. The palate lights up, fresh and bright, with a gradual building of citrus and grapefruit intensity and a nutty, flinty savouriness creeping in with brioche notes. Fine, balanced finish.

The entire Jeté range offers excellent fizz with prices to match. This is full of white peach and citrus, ginger spice and yeasty bread-biscuit flavours. It has some complexity, it’s refreshing, and it finishes rather zingy and super dry. Nice one.

Huon Hooke - The Real Review
Medium to full yellow colour, seemingly displaying some age (from reserve wine?). There is appealing toastiness and a degree of matured character, some lees-aged complexity, while the palate is quite intense and persistent, the finish firm and dry. The acid is a trifle strident. It has good mouth-filling properties over and above its station. Great value for money! (The back-label says it's a blanc de blancs)
