94/100 'Excellent' | Cameron Douglas MS

Good Kiwi Méthode can be hard to come by, and this brilliant release comes from one of Hawke's Bay's most respected producers, with a proven track record for producing exceptional sparkling wines.

Crafted from a classic blend of chardonnay and pinot noir using the traditional method, SQM spends 18 months ageing on lees before disgorgement, building lovely complexity, richness and texture. Bright citrus flavours lead the charge, complemented by delicate nutty notes and a beautifully creamy mouthfeel. There's plenty of freshness to keep everything lively, with fine bubbles and an elegant, lingering finish.

Squawking Magpie have put their considerable winemaking expertise to excellent use here, delivering a seriously impressive Kiwi Méthode that punches well above its weight. A gorgeous glass of bubbles, and a brilliant alternative to Champagne. Sublime.

Tasting Notes

Selectively grown Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes have been bottle fermented and aged on lees for 18 months prior to disgorging creating a beautiful complex wine with citrus and nutty notes.

Cameron Douglas MS writes "Complex bouquet with an intense autolysis of brioche and oat, strawberry, peach and ripe citrus. Equally complex on the palate with bakery goods, some mineral - chalk, white strawberry, stone fruits and very leesy. Fine bold mousse, lengthy finish and nicely complex."
