Hand Crafted Salmon Sparkling NV

Following the flow of the river, for many, would seem like the way to go. This NV Salmon however travels against the mainstream in truly European style.

Pinot Noir sourced from the Adelaide Hills and Limestone Coast present a bouquet of strawberry and red apple whilst Limestone Coast Chardonnay provides a crisp citrus finish. The outcome, a NV Sparkling with the best of two regions and no shortage of complexity.

Whilst fresh, lively and eminently enjoyable now, the 'Salmon' will live a long and fruitful life when wellcellared. Enjoy with Japanese fare, crab or smoked salmon canapés.
