No1 Family Estate Cuvee Reine Methode Traditionelle
Marlborough, New Zealand
A GLORIOUS ADDITION TO THE PREMIUM NEW ZEALAND SPARKLING SCENE.
97/100 'Outstanding' | Cameron Douglas MS
This is a superb example of Marlborough méthode NV made in the classic Champagne style. No.1 NV méthodes come from a predominant vintage, with a blend of reserve wine from multiple years to keep consistency with the house style.
Extended lees ageing has created a charming méthode that is full and rich but retains finesse. Champagne-like characters of brioche and buttered toast are entwined with baked peach and ripe apricot. The pallet is broad with beautifully balanced acidity creating a seamless and elegant méthode that is crisp yet lingers on the taste buds.
Sublime.

Tasting Notes
The winery writes "This classic blend of chardonnay, pinot noir and pinot meunier has had long term lees ageing and minimal dosage to create a seamless and sophisticated Extra Brut Reserve NV."
Cameron Douglas MS writes "This is a fantastic wine beginning with plush pale golden hues and lemon highlights, leading to a bouquet of white-fleshed orchard fruits and citrus, swathed in a fresh butter brioche autolysis from extended fine lees complexities. Apple blossoms, nut, and honey highlights complete the bouquet. A complex wine touches the palate with a softly textured voluminous mousse and superfine bubble. Nicely weighted with a rounded satin-cream texture, core flavours of oatmeal, citrus, white-fleshed orchard fruits with layers of autolysis and acidity. A delicious wine with a dry, lengthy finish offering perfect drinking today and through the next eight to twelve years."
