Tasting Notes for Petaluma Croser Brut 2004 75cl:
This is refined, elegant sparkling wine, with smoky, creme brulee aromas backing up the zesty citrus and pineapple flavours.
Press Coverage:
"One of the most famous names on the Aussie wine scene, Brian Croser's sparkling legacy is a weighty one and there has not been a finer vintage in my memory than this awe-inspiring 2004. Made very much along classical Champagne lines…this is a really beautiful wine that holds its own with any of the wine world's top sparklers. It is only £15, which makes it terrific value, too."
Matthew Jukes, The Daily Mail - 2006-12-09
Producer Information:
Petaluma is one of Australia's most important producers, famous for seeking out the finest terroirs in South Australia rather than taking a one-site-fits-all approach to its grapes. Riesling (one of Australia-s very best) comes from the Hanlin Hill vineyard in the Clare Valley, Chardonnay from the cool climate Piccadilly Valley in the Adelaide Hills and Cabernet from Coonawarra. Andrew 'Ox' Hardy, a member of the original Hardy wine family and a walking encyclopaedia of South Australian wine, is now the man at the helm, ensuring these vineyards have a very exciting future.
