2014 Beltana Blanc de Blancs

The 2014 release has incredible complexity, with oyster shell minerality layered over aromas of green apple, preserved lemon and roasted almond. A medium dosage balances the textural complexity on palate with our signature crisp, mouth-watering finish. A persistent fine bead and creamy mousse gives extra lift to these delicious aromas and flavours.

Vineyard Notes

2014 was famous for some record heatwaves in January and February which made site selection incredibly important. The Beltana was picked from the highest and coolest site we source from in the Piccadilly Valley. Fortunately vines shut down in extreme heat, so the fruit retained excellent natural acidity and didn’t accumulate sugars too quickly and harvest was a little later than normal. Some sunburn was seen on the fruit on the western side of the canopy, so our hand-picking team selected bunches from the Eastern side primarily, and those from deep within the canopy.

Winemaker Notes

The juice for this wine was fermented in 100% stainless steel to preserve freshness and fruit purity, and underwent full malolactic ferment to soften the high acid level from this site. the Beltana is a snapshot of what Chardonnay delivers from great sites in the Adelaide Hills from vintage to vintage.
