About this product
Dry, Full Bodied style of Sparkling Blanc de NoirsYarra Valley, AustraliaSmall production of 100% Pinot Meunier made by Methode Traditionnelle.
Upon the passing in 2008 of Yarra Yering’s founder, Dr Bailey Carrodus, previously unknown bottles of Blanc de Noir were discovered in the cellar. This formed the inspiration to continue to produce a Yarra Yering sparkling wine in honour of Dr Carrodus’ earlier Blanc de Noirs he made with a nod to the style of champagne houses, Krug & Bollinger.
Hand harvested and whole bunch pressed. The lightly clarified juice is transferred to neutral oak barrels where it is fermented to produce the base wine and then matured for 12 months.
The wine then undergoes the second fermentation in bottle (traditional method) where the bubbles are formed. It remained in the bottle on the yeast lees for 48 months developing texture and creaminess before disgorgement.

Full bodied red wines have a noticeably textural mouthfeel with bold, complex flavours. Often deeply coloured.
Dry wines have no trace of sweetness at all.
