The aroma is delicate and complex with the yeast autolysis character of freshly baked bread complimented by citrus fruits and hazelnuts. Toasty baked yeast notes prevail over the bright grapefruit flavoured palate. A subtle lemon meringue confectionary note also appears before a fine acid backbone and refreshing effervescence cleanses the dry lemony finish.

Pale straw with slight hints of lime green. Delicate aromas of fresh cut white peach and crunchy rockmelon, with slight hints of juicy red apple, ripernpear and lemon rind. Upfront fruit flavours of crunchy pear and crisp apple with hints of lemon rind and lemon curd, finishing with a lingering soft creamy length, aided by a subtle line and length acidity and delicate bead. Crisp lingering finish.

Croser Non Vintage Sparkling  stays true to the ‘aperitif’ style of Croser Vintage while signalling an evolution of the Petaluma Croser house style. The wine is a blend of the current vintage Croser with reserve wine from several older vintages – with each vintage adding distinctive qualities to the final blend.

The wine showcases a rich, full blend of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from selected sites in the cool climate Piccadilly Valley and other parts of the Adelaide Hills.

Strength without force. Power with passion. Absolute joie de vivre. This is a fabulous wine, with a beautiful body balanced between the gentle sweetness of fresh Pinot Noir fruit and the immense strength of toasty yeast. Laid upon a featherbed of steady, fine mousse, and leaving a long and lingering aftertaste, Brut offers a rendezvous to remember.
