Refined Chardonnay (33%), taut and elegant with notes of citrus, white peach, fig and a touch of fine lees, vibrant acidity. Structured Cabernet in lower parts and traditional-method sparkling. East of Melbourne (1838), oceanic influence.
The wine region of Victoria
Australian diversity from cool to temperate climate. Yarra Valley and Mornington: fine, silky Pinot Noir (cherry, raspberry, undergrowth), taut, mineral Chardonnay.

The word of the wine: Stirring (champagne)
Manual operation (on a "desk") or mechanical (with a "gyropalette") which allows the deposit created by the yeasts (see tirage) to go down to the neck of the bottle for disgorging.
