The Carousal Blanc de Blanc NV is a vibrant Australian sparkling Chardonnay made by Patrick Sullivan, with fruit sourced from vineyards at the southern end of Victoria’s King Valley near the foothills of the Victorian Alps. Cool evening air and a long ripening season help retain natural acidity, producing a fresh expression with bright citrus, crisp orchard fruit and subtle mineral notes.
On the palate, it is lively and precise with zesty acidity, fine bubbles and concentrated Chardonnay fruit. A subtle crème brûlée richness and gentle oak influence add texture and complexity, balanced by a clean mineral character and refreshing finish.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent choice for customers looking for an Australian Blanc de Blanc with freshness, fine texture and subtle richness. Best enjoyed well chilled. Ideal with fresh oysters, grilled prawns, fish and chips, smoked salmon, soft cheeses or light seafood dishes.
