2020 Late Disgorged
“A limited release, single block sparkling from our heritage Chenin Blanc vines, aged over five years in the cellar. Creamy and complex with a fine bead and a lingering chalky finish – precise and poised.”

Vineyard Notes
Warm temperatures and late winter rains woke the
vines sooner than expected. Pre-pruning and a cooler
August helped stall budburst until early September.
Conditions continued to be warmer and drier than average,
triggering fruit set and helping to ripen fruit beautifully
into the new year. Shoot thinning ensured only pristine
bunches were harvested. Our Chenin Blanc was picked
with fruit purity and excellent natural acidity.
