Ray Jordan’s review
A blend of pinot noir and chardonnay sourced from Pemberton is the basis for this exceptional example of a Western Australian sparkling wine. Sittella has been a leader in this style for many years, and this exquisitely crafted wine is a perfect example of why. Lemon meringue, game, some red fruits and a little warm brioche on the nose provide the engaging opening. The palate is lavish and rich, yet controlled and defined. A wine of tremendous precision and linear expression that captures sparkling wine perfectly.
