Sparkling Wine

Kumeu River Pinot Noir and Chardonnay blend together to create a deliciously dry and perfectly pink cr?mant. The aromas of summer sparkle from the glass, freshly picked strawberries and white stone fruit build the texture and mouth feel we really enjoy from our Kumeu Cr?mant.

The perfect aperitif for the festive season.

Lovely dry, full bodied, Loire Valley sparkling Chenin Blanc from Domaine des Aubuisieres; producers of impressive bubbly and still Chenin Blancs such as this outstanding sparkling wine.

70% Viognier and 30% Sauvignon Blanc made with the ancestral method of bottle fermentation and no disgorgement (akin to Petillant Naturel).

A very sophisticated yet quaffable sparkler with real complexity. 

A secondary label from Billecart-Salmon offering the same stunning quality at a lower price point.

A sumptuous golden yellow in the glass with a very fine and crystalline bead. The nose is impressive with aromas of brioche, almonds, butter, apple, and pear leading to a round citrus mineral palate with very good balance between acidity and fruit.

Late Whitehaven co-founder Greg white was immensely proud of his three daughters, a legacy that Sue White has continued at the helm of Whitehaven Wines. And this new dry pink sparkling wine is made in honour of the daughters, as its name suggests. As is fitting of them, it is a beautiful expression of a sparkling wine made using the same winemaking methods as champagne - the second ferment is in the bottle; the blend is Chardonnay and Pinot Noir and the wine is incredibly elegant, crisp and bone dry in taste. Flavours of fresh summer berries lead into a gentle creaminess in a sparkling wine with a long, precise, cleansing finish.

Drink it with lightly grilled tuna or smoked salmon.

As if Lake Wanaka isn't enough of an allure to drink this beautiful bubbly, made from grapes grown in the vicinity, the flavours of this crisp lemony sparkling wine are outstanding. 

Winemakers Sarah-Kate and Dan Dineen describe the flavours in this sparkling wine as "Lemon blossom, brioche and biscuit with hints of almond nuttiness."
They make the base wine from Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, blending the current season wine with a portion of the previous vintage?s bubbly base, matured for an extra 12 months in oak. They add 15% of reserve wine from back vintages, dating back to 2004 to produce complex assemblage, pure and persistent with hints of nuttiness and biscuit. After tirage and secondary fermentation in bottle, the wine is aged on yeast lees for a further 12 to 18 months prior to riddling and disgorging.

Champagne Deutz was founded in 1838 and is part of the Louis Roederer family of champagne houses today. This is its flagship wine from Deutz. Crisp purity comes from the Chardonnay in this refreshing, full bodied blend, which is supported by subtle savoury notes from Pinot Noir. It represents good value from the Champagne region and is a wine with depth and character. 

Italian designers bring their best bling to the design of the new Pizzolato Prosecco, which contains zero alcohol but loads of lovely aromatic flavour. This lightly sparkling wine is certified organic. 

Beautiful new bubbly with zero alcohol from Giesen, whose winemakers have been at the forefront of innovation in the no-alcohol wine category. 

This is light bodied with fragrant citrus aromas and a light freshness. Very good new addition to the sparkling wine category in New Zealand. 

Beautiful complex sparkling wine made in the same way as champagne, only in the heart of the Wairarapa. This is one of our staff faves and we eagerly await its return in store - with a new fresh vintage from Johner Estate in Gladstone.
