Expert Reviews

89 Points - Mike Bennie - The WineFront - Posted 03 May 2017

Salinger returned to Methode Traditionelle in 2013 (2002 to 2012 it was transfer method). The fruit for this wine comes mainly from Drumborg Vineyard but also from a couple of growers. The shift is to more chardonnay, gradually, says winemaker Adam Carnaby. It is still 60% pinot noir here (50% will be the balance from 2016 release). This wine has 30% chardonnay and 10% pinot meunier in the mix. Typically a tight, minerally style.

Really fine perfume shows sea spray, faint nougat and marzipan, pretty floral talc, green apple. Crunchy textured, lean in the palate but nicely balanced by foamy, freshening mousse of bubbles. Good length of flavour. Very mouthwatering finish with grapefruity tang. Delicious, easy drinking.

Winery Tasting Notes

Colour

Pale white gold with a fine bead and persistent mousse.

Aroma

The nose shows citrus and green apple aromas with brioche and nutty characters derived from ageing on lees.

Palate

The palate combines delicate citrus fruits with toasted brioche and creamy lees characters supported by a fine mineral acid structure, which produces an elegant, balanced wine with great length.
