The 2024 Lloyd Brothers Blanc de Blancs is a vibrant and elegantly styled Adelaide Hills sparkling wine crafted entirely from Chardonnay grown in the cool-climate vineyards of Kuitpo and the wider Adelaide Hills. Produced in a fresh, modern style, the wine combines crisp citrus purity with fine creamy texture and lively acidity, showcasing the region’s excellent conditions for premium sparkling wine production. The long, cool 2024 growing season delivered exceptional flavour development while retaining the natural freshness and tension that define quality Blanc de Blancs.
The nose reveals white blossom, lemon zest and green apple layered with white peach and delicate brioche notes. On the palate, it is crisp and beautifully balanced with fine bubbles, refreshing citrus acidity and a soft creamy mid-palate that adds texture without heaviness. Layers of orchard fruit, fresh lemon and subtle pastry complexity unfold with freshness and finesse, finishing clean, dry and vibrant with impressive drinkability.
