Kim Crawford Small Parcels Fizz Méthode Traditionelle 2011
Marlborough, South Island, New ZealandThis crisp, complete, medium bodied traditional method fizz is a blend of Chardonnay from Marlborough's cooler Awatere Valley, as well as Pinot Noir from Marlborough's clay-soiled Southern Valleys. Ample toasted stones, lemon and a bed of doughy, fennel lees is brightened with a pithy citrus acidity and a snap of lemon peel that hums along the finish. A lovely example of accessible Kiwi fizz.Tasted: 16 January 2017Tasted by: Prices:

Marlborough, South Island, New ZealandFelicity Nelson who hosts all of the winery visitors at KC goes by the nickname ‘Fizz’ to match her bubbly personality and quirky sophistication. A 57/43 blend of chardonnay (Awatere Valley and pinot noir (Southern Valleys) you can expect a racy, sparkler with taut lemon lime citrus notes and with notes of pear and cherries. Tight, lean, mineral and dry this is a very food-friendly style made for connoisseurs. Smoke salmon would be a fine match.Tasted: 02 December 2016Tasted by: Prices:
