Details
This zesty sparkler is based on early-picked Chardonnay. It's zip and sparkle is sure to please - look for notes of crisp green apple and tangy, lemon-flavoured acidity. The wine is ever-so-slightly creamy and finishes with a faint hint of almond. Easy going and delicious.
Munro Valley is a label focussed specifically on sparkling, using fruit from across Victoria to make affable and easy drinking wines. No alarms, no surprises, and affability at every turn. Of course, making fizz this drinkable is actually an art form, and the secret behind these wines is about when to pick and then when to blend. You need to balance out that perfect sweet spot with just enough generosity, and the team behind Munro Valley wines are champions at nailing the balance.

Pairing guide
We just can’t get enough of this thrillingly dry and crisp sparkling wine from Munro Valley, which offers fantastic food pairing possibilities to explore through the festive season. It’s a natural choice for Christmas starters like grilled scallops with an Asian twist, but will work just as well with prawn cocktail, seafood terrines, chicken salads and crispy samosas and pakoras. Blinis with caviar, fresh oysters with apple and horseradish, fried tofu and all kinds of canapes and tapas dishes will also hit the spot in style.
