Pipers River

$ Rel: 75
A fine, creamy and complex, savoury sparkling wine with classical pinot qualities of small red raspberries, strawberries and cherries backed by notes of spice and marzipan plus some charming, faintly meaty development. Its creaminess and depth of flavour is enhanced by the crunch and crackle of the bead and extends over a pithy chalkiness towards a dry, racy finish.

Winery

Kreglinger is the name of the huge Belgian trading company whose main business is chemicals and pharmaceuticals, but whose Australian wine division includes Pipers Brook Vineyard, Ninth Island and Norfolk Rise in Mount Benson, South Australia. The Kreglinger brand has been allocated a very consistent and stylish collection of sparkling wines made at the winery of its sister brand, Pipers Brook. The wines have always been very smart and beautifully presented, and the Vintage wines are amongst the finest made in Tasmania, which these days is saying quite a lot!
