Translation missing: en.Tasting notes
The Diamond Heart Waihopai Cuvée 2017 from Marisco Vineyards is an elegant sparkling wine made from Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, which combines the fresh aromas of freshly baked bread and green apple with the elegant, perfumed complexity of Pinot Noir. On the palate, this wine shows wonderfully rich and creamy thanks to long yeast aging, and a lively, crisp acidity provides balance and leads to a fresh, dry finish.


Chardonnay & Pinot Noir
The cuvée of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir combines freshness with substance and is particularly well established as a sparkling wine . Chardonnay often contributes citrus and apple notes, lively acidity and a slender profile; Pinot Noir adds body, structure and sometimes delicate red fruit. Together, they create a balanced yet taut and full-bodied style. The acidity and substance support its ageing potential; extended lees ageing can add brioche and toasted notes.
This combination is classic in Champagne, and is also found in high-quality sparkling wines from other cool regions, such as England. With light pressing, the cuvée is usually pale yellow to golden yellow, and delicate pink as a rosé. Despite its dark berry skins, Pinot Noir contributes hardly any perceptible tanninwhen handled gently. The perlage accentuates freshness and texture; depending on the Aged, the wine may feel linear or creamy. It pairs well with fish, white meat and mild vegetable dishes.
