Descripción

Kumeu River Cremánt Blanc de Blancs es la última incorporación a la familia de la bodega. Elaborado con Chardonnay de la añada 2018, este vino permaneció 3 años en reposo sobre lías y fue degollado en diciembre de 2022 con una dosificación de 6 g/L. Tras su paso por botella desde su degüelle, este vino es una delicia.

Opinión de los críticos

James Suckling:

This is a fantastic sparkling wine with wonderful complexity of aromas of brioche, croissant, and subtle cooked apples, like apple tart. It’s medium-bodied and dry with lovely density and depth. Excellent length. Pure chardonnay. Very limited production. Three and a half years on the yeast. 6 grams of dosage. Drink now. - James Suckling, Senior Editor. 

The Wine Advocate:

This NV Kumeu Cremant Blanc de Blancs is based on the 2018 vintage. It was bottled in May 2018 and disgorged in December 2021. There are six grams of residual sugar per liter, and everything feels very much in balance. In my opinion, this Blanc de Blancs is a cut above the Cremant and Cremant Rosé for its finish, which is composed and persistent. There's crushed nuts and brine, grapefruit marmalade on toast and white pepper. It's very good. Lovely wine! 12.5% alcohol sealed under Diam. - Erin Larkin.
