|
| Background |
This Pinot Chardonnay Methode Traditionelle is made from fruit grown in the Eden Valley, much of it on Burge's own Summers Hill vineyard, which is 150 metres higher in altitude and has 250mm more rain than Grant Burge's vineyards in the Barossa. The grapes produced here have delicate, yet quite intense flavours, as well as the natural acidity and lean, elegant flavours that are required to make high-quality sparkling wine in the tradition of champagne. |

|
| Nose |
Delightfully biscuit like, with ripe strawberry and peach notes |
|
| Palate |
Rich and generous with a real vitality that’s heightened by the creamy mouthfeel and a dry, acid finish. This is a sparkling that adapts to its environment, and as such just as enjoyable with food as it is on its own. The style is one of elegance and finesse, balanced with flavour and, above all, drinkability. |
|
| Highlights |
The pinot noir grapes were hand picked and whole bunch pressed. The chardonnay proportion was also hand picked but crushed conventionally into a tank press. This blend has been on tirage for 22 months before disgorging and liqueuring. |

| Winery Information |
Grant Burge is located in the heart of the Barossa Valley in South Australia. Family owned (and proud of it), Grant Burge was formed in 1988 by fifth generation vigneron, winemaker and winery namesake Grant Burge. The Burge family has been in the Barossa since 1855, and Grant continues on the family tradition whilst bringing his winemaking techniques into the 21st century. |
