Winery & Vintage Info

It wasn’t so long ago that the Adelaide Hills were almost untested for grape growing. However, the region’s similarities in climate to Champagne have proven it to be the ideal place to create an Australian sparkling wine to rival the world’s finest. Today, Croser Vintage and Croser Late Disgorged wines are meticulously produced from grapes grown in the Piccadilly Valley, where the unique climate allows for extended lees aging, resulting in an elegant complexity. The Croser NV range draws its character from a patchwork of the best cool climate regions, to craft wines of consistent quality and complex fruit expression.

Piccadilly is a remarkable valley to the east of Mount Lofty, the highest point in the Adelaide Hills. Croser Vintage and Croser Late Disgorged wines benefit from these unique conditions as the valley is the coolest and wettest in a series of valleys radiating away from Mount Lofty and is suitable for growing elegant Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. A combination of adequate rainfall, a cool ripening season, diverse aspects and quite varied soil types promises to deliver a subtle diversity of flavours from within the one valley.

Traditional Method is a detailed process involving fermenting, maturation, riddling and disgorging all in the same bottle that will eventually reach the drinker.

The vineyards are hand tended to encourage a healthy, well-ripened grape crop. Each batch is harvested at just the right moment to deliver the proper balance of flavour, delicacy and freshness.

Hand harvested into small crates minimises the chance of berries splitting and exposing the juice to air or grape skins. Once at the winery, the grapes are chilled, ready for pressing.
