Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes are sourced from several grower and estate vineyards located with in the Wairau Valley in Marlborough. Soils vary from stony free draining gravels to fine silt loams containing some clay.
The pale straw colour and aromas of ripe citrus fruits indicate the chardonnay origins of Cloudy Bay Pelorus NV. A bouquet of apple and lemon complements fresh bready notes derived from two years bottle ageing on lees. The deliciously crisp palate displays toasty, creamy complexity, enhanced by a lingering nutty finish.
This wine is the unique result of a winemaking partnership started in 1988 between Montana Wines and the prestigious House of Deutz in Champagne. The grapes are hand-picked and whole bunch pressed in the Brancott Winery Coquard press to extract juice in the gentlest manner, yielding juice with elegance and finesse. Grapes from all the vineyard blocks and varieties are kept separate until they are blended prior to the second fermentation. This blending stage is the most importantstep in the méthode traditionnelle process.
Deutz Marlborough Cuvée is aged on lees for a minimum of two to three years to impart toasty yeast flavours.
Traditionally Sparkling wine is made with Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier. But in New Zealand they have recently been playing around with Sparkling Wines and started using Sauvignon Blanc.
