The Pipers Tasmania Cuvée NV is a beautifully crafted traditional method Tasmanian sparkling wine made from the classic trio of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier sourced from the renowned Pipers River region. Produced by the pioneering Pipers Brook Vineyard team, the wine undergoes secondary fermentation in bottle and spends over 12 months on lees, building texture, finesse and complexity while retaining the vibrant freshness that defines Tasmania’s world-class sparkling wines. It’s a modern expression of a Tasmanian sparkling classic — elegant, pure and remarkably drinkable.
The nose reveals white peach, green apple and citrus blossom layered with white flowers, brioche and delicate pastry notes. On the palate, it is crisp and finely textured with lively acidity, a creamy mousse and beautifully integrated lees complexity. Layers of lemon zest, nectarine and grapefruit unfold alongside hints of nougat, almond and fresh bread dough, finishing long, dry and refreshingly mineral with excellent balance and poise. Critics have praised its finesse and value, with reviews highlighting its fine bead, creamy texture and classic cool-climate Tasmanian character.
