Winemaking Notes

Josef Chromy Tasmanian Cuvée Brut NV is crafted from whole bunches of hand-picked fruit that are gently pressed to ensure delicate flavours and minimal phenolic pick up. The alcoholic fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks, and malolactic fermentation is arrested to retain high levels of natural acidity and maximum freshness. The resulting base wine is blended with a portion of reserve wine each year to reflect the Josef Chromy house style. The wine is then tiraged and sent to second fermentation in bottle following the traditional method. The wine spent 15 months ageing on lees before being disgorged and sealed under cork, creating expressive citrus and green apple notes with toasted biscuit aroma complementing fine creamy texture. This lively palate of crunchy green apple and lemon with hints of toasted biscuit showcases richness and complexity in its youth thanks to delicate aldehydic layering, demonstrating exceptional craftsmanship with Pinot Noir 50%, Chardonnay 47% and dash of Pinot Meunier 3%.
