Monty’s Leap Sparkling

Estate-grown Chardonnay, planted in 1996. Pinot Noir sourced from the Two People’s Bay vineyard in Nanarup, grown on 27-year-old vines. Ray Jordan for Winepilot This is a very tidy little sparkling wine from this Albany-based producer. The aroma shows a degree of intensity with a creamy, brioche-like stone fruit character. The palate displays a seamless, harmonious combination of subtle stone fruit and brioche crusty bread with a subtle nuttiness. A little citrus tang lifts the finish.
