Meet our Zero Dosage Sparkling: made by the same traditional method as our Brut, but with no sugar added after disgorgement. The result is sparkling wine in its most direct form, crisp, dry and precise, with nothing added to soften or sweeten the finish. It is a clear expression of our Central Otago fruit and a compelling choice for those who enjoy their bubbles distinctly dry. This wine contains 12.5% alcohol by volume and no residual sugar, dry in style, but certainly not alcohol-free.

A selected blend of 62% Pinot Noir and 38% Chardonnay. Bottle fermented and aged on lees. Riddled and disgorged by hand from early 2018 onwards at Quartz Reef. The winemaking was very much in keeping with the traditional practices of the Old World. The winemaker, Rudi Bauer, has combined these techniques, and his own personal understanding, to create this wine. pH: 3.08, TA: 6.2 g/L, Alc: 12.5%, RS:
