From Tyrrell’s in the Hunter Valley, Blanc De Blancs Vintage 2017 is a 100% Chardonnay sparkling wine crafted in the traditional method. It delivers crisp citrus and white-fruit aroma, a taut, mineral-driven palate, and a refined, persistent mousse. A versatile choice for aperitifs and seafood dishes, with the potential to develop with careful cellaring.
