House of Arras Blanc de Blancs NV Tasmania - 6 Bottles

With about 34 years of winemaking experience, accomplished winemaker Ed Carr had the firm belief that Tasmania is suitable for producing exceptional sparkling wines. Ed’s belief and foresight in the potential of the region led the company to produce outstanding quality Tasmanian cuvee under the House of Arras wine range. Ed is recognized as Australia’s most awarded sparkling winemaker.    

This wine sees careful parcel selection of premium cool climate Chardonnay from vineyards in Piper's River, the Derwent Valley, East Coast and Coal River Valleys. A significant portion spends time on oak before this wine undergoes secondary ferment in bottles and spends 30 months on lees giving remarkable balance and poise for a multi vintage sparkling wine. The palate expresses an elegant but powerful character, showcasing flavours of grapefruit pith, lemon curd, natural yoghurt and fresh sourdough. Balance is achieved at a low dosage which expresses the purity of Chardonnay with classic citrus and saline characters.
