Quartz Reef Blanc de Blancs 2019, Central Otago

I tried this wine over 3 days and discovered that it was best on day 20.5 and 3.0. Be careful not to over chill this wine, as it delivers its best at around 11 Celsius.

What can I say, but Congratulations to the whole wine growing and wine making team at QR HQ. Another example of NZ sparkling wine at its best from one of the very few producers in Aotearoa who persistently and consistently deliver quality and deliciousness in a glass of sparkling wines. This Methode Traditionnelle has immediate impact and drive from the autolysis with a fresh nut and fine lees complexity closely followed by scents of baked apple and peach, grapefruit and fresh oatmeal. Dry, taut, crisp, saline, fruity and mouthwatering. A fine small bubble mousse with a stream of finesse and style. Lengthy and ready to drink from 2026 through 2033+.
