The 2015 Sidewood Vignerons Chloé Cuvée Sparkling is a premium traditional method sparkling from the Adelaide Hills, crafted from a classic blend of Chardonnay (60%) and Pinot Noir (40%) and aged extensively on lees for added complexity. It showcases a refined, Champagne-inspired style with depth and elegance. The nose is complex and lifted, offering brioche, baked apple and citrus, layered with hints of green fruit and subtle spice.
On the palate, it is creamy and well-balanced with fine bubbles, showing flavours of green apple, orange blossom and biscotti, supported by fresh acidity and a mineral backbone, leading to a long, elegant finish.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a top-tier Australian sparkling for customers seeking a mature, complex alternative to Champagne. Drink now. Perfect with oysters, seafood or as a refined aperitif.
