Produced from Pinot Noir grapes harvested at Roebuck’s Roman Villa vineyard, the Blanc de Noirs is only released in exceptional years. Partially fermented in the finest Burgundian oak barrels and bottle-aged for a minimum of 48 months, this is a rich, yet beautifully balanced wine with delicate bubbles, a silky texture, and a long, lingering finish. “I was seriously impressed with their 2015 vintage which is rich, intense and yeasty and has mature fruit notes of citrus and baked apples. A very special treat.” Will Lyons, The Sunday Times

The nose is complex and inviting, with layers of baked apple, ripe stone fruits, citrus zest, and buttery brioche, all enhanced by a subtle hint of spice.

With its fine, persistent bubbles and refreshing acidity, the finish is long, aromatic, and beautifully refined.
