This sparkling wine is a pale straw/gold colour with a fine and persistent bead. Bready and biscuity autolysis notes from lees ageing are balanced by crisp apples and citrus lift. Vibrant lemony acidity adds drive to a full and rich mid-palate, vigorous mousse and a slaty, mineral persisting finish. 'The texture is soft and swirling, a real triumph. It delivers gentle crispness and finished with tingly citrus drive. 92 points' - Nick Stock, Good Wine Guide 2013

This wine is the base line on which we build our sparkling wines at Riversdale Estate. A blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier from different vintages left on tirage lees for 30-36months to develop some beautiful autolytic characteristics. A wine that expresses our terroir and climate with freshness and straight-line acidity. The starting point of your dive into Sparkling wines made in the traditional French method by our winemaker.

A low dosage preserves natural acidity and structural balance, leading to a firm, dry finish with clean persistence. Cuvée 1901 represents benchmark Tasmanian sparkling performance, delivering house style precision, prestige and remarkable value for your cellar or table.

A by House of Arras Premium Cuvee has a complex and inviting aroma with nuances of forest floor, nougat, exotic spice and lanolin. The palate has opulent flavours reminiscent of lychee, butter sauteed mushroom, natural yoghurt and fresh oyster.
