02 Pinot Noir Chardonnay rated a 1 in 100 wine

[Sun 1 November 2009]

Brown Brothers Limited Release Pinot Noir Chardonnay

Vintage: 2002

RRP: $35.00

Score: 94 points

This manages to pull off what no other bubbles has achieved this year: a fresh, late disgorged style under $40. Sourced from the famous Whitlands vineyard above the snowline in the King Valley, this wine has the cool, zesty lemon flavours of its source infused into its icy core. A full six years on lees has built layers of toasty, nutty complexity and great minerality. It’s been impeccably assembled by the talented brothers Brown and released at a very strategic price point. This wine epitomises great Aussie sparkling wine more than any other this year.
