Reflects the superb vineyards and the consistent nature of the house style. This wine has an intense fragrance with fruit and bready notes. Well balanced and pleasantly fresh to taste, with a remarkable fruity structure.

Brut Impérial is a balanced assemblage of the three vine varieties disclosing a succession of elegant and harmonious sensations, a fresh maturity, supple and and refined lines, inspiring well-being and an emotion which is appreciated andshared. Pale yellow with shades of green. Subtely vinous, with a vine and lime blossom attack. Delicate well-balanced; leaves behind a sense of harmony, mellowness.

Citrus fruit and lifted green apple aromas are exhibited on the nose and combine with toasty bread and yeast notes to provide a complex and enticing first impression. Crisp acidity on the palate with a persistent, fine bead and a creamy richness from lees ageing gives our blanc de blanc a long slightly off dry finish.

Named after Pelorus Jack, the dolphin that used to escort steamers through the Marlborough Sounds. The base wines of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay are fermented in a mix of stainless steel and French oak barriques and put through malolactic to provide softness, and the wine is lees aged for two years prior to disgorgement. An elegant, fruit-driven sparkler with a persistent bead and classic yeasty/nutty aromas and flavours enhanced by a crisp, fresh finish.

Light nose with herbal tones and slight toastiness. Palate i s off-dry with a creamy fruitiness making this wine an easy going example of good Methode Traditionelle.~ - Judges note, Liquorland Top 100 2009
