Vineyard Notes
We source fruit from sites located above 550m in the Lenswood and
Piccadilly Valley regions of the Adelaide Hills. These sites consistently produce outstanding Pinot Noir and Chardonnay for sparkling wine.
Winemaker Notes
Different parcels of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes were all hand-picked
and then fermented in stainless steel tanks. Select parcels only went through
malolactic ferment this year before resting until late winter when they are
allocated to their final blend. The aim when blending Loftia is to create a
sparkling that will gain complexity with age, as well as show the perfect
balance between the line and precision from the Chardonnay and the power
from the Pinot.
We tirage (bottle) the wine by hand and store the bottles at 14C for a long
consistent second ferment. After a minimum of three years, small batches
are riddled and hand disgorged to allow the remaining bottles to continue
ageing on lees as long as possible. The dosage liquor is crafted using a blend
of base wines that have been aged over the years.
Food Pairing Notes
