Jansz Late Disgorged Vintage Cuvée 2015 (6 Bottles) Tasmania

by Wines Australia

AUSTRALIA WIDE SHIPPING INCLUDED

Pale gold in colour with a delicate bead and fine mousse. Initial aromas of lime zest and vanilla bean evolve into more complex layers of delicate elderflower blossom, honeysuckle and herbaceous linden tree. This is a powerful wine with Chardonnay the driving force and Pinot Noir providing the harmonising finesse. Elegantly structured with notes of zingy lime, lychee and honeydew, a fine chalky texture and pure lime pip acidity. Seven and a half years ageing on yeast lees in bottle has built further complexity and subtle nuances of nougat, roasted hazelnuts and brioche. With lingering and refreshing natural acidity on the finish, this is a sparkling wine of finesse, power and elegance.

Description

Established in 1986, Jansz Tasmania specialises in crafting luxury sparkling wines from Tasmania. Australian owned by the Hill-Smith family since 1998, the vineyard was named Jansz Tasmania, paying homage to Abel Janszoon Tasman who first sighted the island in 1642. Proudly Tasmanian.

Jansz Tasmania specialises in crafting luxury sparkling wines from Tasmania. In a joint venture with Heemskerk, Louis Roederer recognised the similarities of the Tasmanian climate to that of Champagne and together they planted Pinot Noir and Chardonnay vines.

It was this foresight which led to the production of the first Tasmanian vintage sparkling wine in 1989 using traditional Méthode Champenoise; a tradition that continues today. Now Australian owned by the Hill-Smith family since 1998, the vineyard was renamed Jansz Tasmania, paying homage to Abel Janszoon Tasman who first sighted the island in 1642. Proudly Tasmanian.
