Jansz Tasmania Premium Vintage

Jansz has re-released this remarkable vintage exclusively through their cellar door, for the same price as the current vintage. Thirteen years of age has built magnificent complex, with layers of grilled pineapple, dried peach, roast pine nuts and the subtle tertiary complexity of woodsmoke. In the midst of such a maelstrom it upholds definition and precision, with secondary grapefruit and preserved lemon lingering very long through a finish sustained by precise Tasmanian acidity. In silky texture, creamy bead, depth of complexity, poise and sheer, epic persistence, this is an Australian sparkling of the highest order. They should have doubled the price. Seriously. Cellar door only.
