Printhie Swift 2016 Blanc De Noirs (6 Bottles) Orange, NSW

$422.00

AUSTRALIA WIDE SHIPPING INCLUDED

Awarded 95pts in the 2021 Halliday Wine Companion. This is a brand new wine (the 5th) in the Swift range, the first disgorgment of the Blanc de Noirs. A very individual wine for Swift Sparkling, given that all other Swift wines are chardonnay dominant.

This wine has been inspired by some of Champagne’s notable grower producers, where we have attempted to produce an interesting, high quality wine first that just happen to be sparkling as well. Dosage: 3.0g/L Tirage date: September 2016 Disgorge date: December 2019 Time on lees: 39 months

With over 3 years on secondary yeast lees in bottle the wine developed some typical yeast lees complexity. However, it will retain is freshness and vibrancy for quite some time now that it has been disgorged.

About Printhie Wines

Printhie Wines, owned by the Swift family is part of the Ultimate Winery Experiences Australia Group and is renowned for its cool climate craftsmanship. Located in the high elevation, cool climate Orange region of NSW, it truly is ‘Wine with altitude’.

Printhie Wines was established in 1996 when we planted the first vineyard on the Swift family’s property ‘Printhie’. The winery was added in 2004 so we could handcraft our award winning wine.

It was the inspiration of Jim and Ruth in 1996 to enter the wine industry with the planting of 12Ha of grapevines on the family property ‘Printhie’, located near Molong in the Orange region of NSW. The most suitable site was selected from the 500Ha property and managed by Jim and Ruth until the return of their two sons, Ed and Dave in the early-2000s.

 

At this time the vineyard area was expanded to 33Ha and a winery was built for the 2004 vintage changing the dynamic of the business from grape growing to wine production. Ed and Dave now manage the day-to-day business operations.
