Deviation Road Beltana Blanc de Blancs 2016

Notes of green apple, oyster shells, preserved lemon and roasted almond. The wine is crisp and fresh on the palate thanks to vibrant and lively cool-climate acidity. This is coupled beautifully with a beautifully velvety creamy texture, and an ultra-fine bead.

100% Chardonnay from high-altitude Adelaide Hills sites and vinified in stainless-steel tanks. The cuvée is allowed to undergo full malolactic fermentation to add a softness and creaminess. It then spends 7 years ageing on lees prior to disgorgement.
