Lowestoft Sparkling Reserve Brut Cuvee NV [JH 92]

AUSTRALIAN SPARKLING WINE SHOW 2022, GOLD MEDAL.

DAVE BROOKES, HALLIDAY WINE COMPANION 2024

JAMES SUCKLING, JANUARY 2025

"Almonds, nougat lemon curd and cooked apples on the nose, followed by a creamy, lactic and medium-bodied palate with soft bubbles. Rich and nutty finish of excellent length. 92 points."

60/40% pinot noir/chardonnay from the Tasman Peninsula/Huon Valley/Coal River Valley; dosage of 9.25 g/L. An expressive and nicely composed sparking showing an energetic bead and mousse. Inviting characters of zesty citrus and red apple fruits and complex fresh pastry, white flower and almond paste tones. There is a vivid mineral line and plenty of drive on the crisp finish. 92 points.
