Angove Organic Cuvee is grown from organically certified grapes grown in our own Nanya Vineyard, near Paringa South Australia.
The low disease pressure and moderately fertile soils of this vineyard allow it to be farmed without using synthetic fertilisers, pesticides or herbicides and hence it is fully certified as organic.
WINEMAKING
Made from 100% Chardonnay the grapes were picked early to ensure we retained the vital acidity needed in sparkling wine. The grapes were pressed and cold settled prior to racking and innoculation with a carefully selected yeast strain.
The wine was left ‘sur lie’ for an extended period to develop a subtle yeasty toastiness prior to bottling
