The wine region of Limestone Coast
Cool-climate GI of south-eastern Australia, red terra rossa over white limestone. Coonawarra's signature Cabernet Sauvignon: classic reds with signature notes of pure blackcurrant, eucalyptus, fresh mint, cedar and graphite, firm tannins and long ageing potential — a world benchmark. Also spicy peppery Shiraz, round Merlot. Precise Chardonnay whites (citrus, hazelnut), taut Riesling (lemon, kerosene).
The wine region of Australie du Sud
Cradle of the great Australian Shiraz: powerful, sun-drenched reds with notes of blackberry, candied plum, pepper, chocolate and eucalyptus, ample tannins and vibrant fruit (Barossa, McLaren Vale). Firm, minty Cabernet Sauvignon on Coonawarra (terra rossa). Dry, lemony Riesling from Clare and Eden Valley, straight and taut. Fresh Sauvignon and Chardonnay from Adelaide Hills.
The word of the wine: Maturing (champagne)
After riddling, the bottles are stored on "point", upside down, with the neck of one bottle in the bottom of the other. The duration of this maturation is very important: in contact with the dead yeasts, the wine takes on subtle aromas and gains in roundness and fatness. A brut without year must remain at least 15 months in the cellar after bottling, a vintage 36 months.
