Quartz Reef Methode Traditionnelle Brut NV 6pack 12.5% 750ml

It is now well established that Central Otago produces outstanding Pinot Noir and Quartz Reef is no exception. Firm and intense with notes of ripe black cherry, pomegranate and spice, the maturing sun drenched slopes of our Bendigo Estate vineyard continues to produce Pinot Noir of exceptional expression and structure. The Quartz Reef Pinot Gris is made in a rich bone dry style which compliments foods of all flavours. Quartz Reef Methode Traditionnelle is a wine of distinction, made in the traditional method to achieve elegance and finesse. Focused, fresh and crisp with a beautiful balance and length. Easily New Zealand's most Champagne-like Sparkling Wine.

Reviews:

Bob Campbell, The Real Review - 94 Pts

A blend of organic/biodynamic pinot noir and chardonnay grown on a steeply sloping Bendigo vineyard. A quite rich and textural sparkler, with toasty yeast autolysis, oyster shell and tangy citrus flavours. The wine has an ethereal texture and a pleasantly dry finish.

Stephen Wong, The Real Review - 93 Pts

Very pale onion-skin. Tight and restrained on the nose but flavoursome and long on the taut, acid-driven palate. Hints of fresh dough, linden, oyster shell, lime leaf and crisp apple define this refined, young sparkling wine. The chalky, dry finish takes on a more earthy tone as mushroom and white pepper make an appearance. Almost austere in its steeliness: there is no rush with this wine—it will continue to broaden and develop more earthy complexity over the next year or two. Disgorged 06/25.
