The addition of Pinot Gris here, to the Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, the more traditional varieties of sparkling, gives this wine a playful note of white fruits that play well within the glass. Twelve months on lees has produced a crisp sparkling that brims with acidity in the form of lemon, green apple and lime pith – it also adds elements of crisp pear and that traditional biscuit-ness found in good bubbles. Fresh, lively and ready for anything. Price: $25.95 – Rating: ****
