Sparkling 2016 – Black Market Deal #35663
- Rich, complex
- Mornington Peninsula
This is 100% Mornington pinot noir, made in the ‘methode traditionnelle’ of Champagne. The result is essentially a white sparkling wine, but with a subtle pale blush on the colour. It’s bright and fresh, exhibiting flavours of green apple and nashi pear. And the pinot gives it a more savoury undertone and traditional expressions of the variety such as strawberries and raspberries. There’s refreshment, complexity and length...the complete package in a bottle of fizz.

Mornington Peninsula
The Mornington Peninsula is one of those places you dream of retiring - once you've made a cool $10m to get you into the Red Hill club. The sublime mix of temperate climate, expansive views, lush hills and pristine beaches is something not many would turn their nose up at. You can rest assured that every winery here has all the money they need, and although the wines may be relatively expensive, they're made as close to idealistic aspirations as possible. It's hard to find a bad wine. The usual cool climate suspects are the mainstay here (Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, Chardonnay and Riesling) and they range from ethereal to weighty. Whichever end of the spectrum, they're all class.
The rules are there ain’t no rules, but here are some foods we think will work pretty well with this wine...
