Graham Beck Synergy Chardonnay Pinot Noir Extra Brut 2017
63% Chardonnay, 37% Pinot Noir
Chardonnay and Pinot Noir were whole-bunch pressed and only the cuvée fraction used. A small portion of Chardonnay was fermented in Piece Champenoise barrel to promote the creamy texture and complexity. The Pinot Noir adds palate weight and length of flavour. The wine was matured for 48 months on the lees prior to disgorgement.
Tasting Notes: Gentle mineral notes with fresh lime and ripe citrus on the nose. Rich raspberry notes burst on the palate with a creamy and gentle mousse. Elegant, youthful and nice brioche notes showing promise to age.
Ready for drinking from 2021 to 2025.
Winemaker: Pieter Ferreira
