Sarah is a vibrant and elegantly crafted bottle fermented sparkling wine, made in the traditional bottle-fermented method. A unique blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Chenin Blanc, it combines the structure of classic Méthode Cap Classique varieties with the freshness and aromatic lift of Chenin Blanc. Named after the owners' second daughter, Sarah, this wine is a tribute to her sparkling personality and joyful spirit. Each grape component is harvested and fermented separately to preserve individual characteristics. The first grapes the cellar receive during the harvest period are used to create Sarah “Bubbly by Nature”. The grapes are whole bunched pressed on a bubbly cycle for about three hours. After the first fermentation, a blend is created, balancing structure and vibrancy. Second fermentation takes place in the bottle on the lees for 8 months. Finally, it is disgorged to retain fresh, zesty flavours.
