Profile
Description
At WineCollective, we're firm believers that you don't need a special occasion to pop open a bottle of delicious sparkling wine, so we're always on the hunt for bubbles that over-deliver on quality at an everyday price point. Our latest find is Counterpoint Brut NV, a charming blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir from South Australia. Sourced from a single vineyard, and made using two of the three grapes traditionally used in Champagne, Counterpoint has a small amount of back-vintage base wine blended in to maintain a consistent house style. Cool fermentation and the absence of malolactic conversion ensure a final wine that's fresh and balanced, perfect for everyday enjoyment. Serve at a very well-chilled 6 C and enjoy over the next year or so.
Pairing
Ideal as an aperitif, this would pair beautifully with anything from puff-pastry canapés to lighter seafood mains.
Aromas and Flavours
Apple
From Granny Smith to Red Delicious, apple makes for a delightfully crisp aroma.
Lemon-lime
Common in cool climate white wines, this aroma can range from fresh citrus to lemon zest.
Peach
Fuzzy peach candies, or real-life fuzzy peaches fresh from a fresh B.C fruit stand.
Bread
That yeasty, slightly sour aroma that embodies the promise of freshly baked bread.
Stone
Remember playing with pebbles as a child and giving them a lick out of curiosity?
