Johanneshof Cellars EMMI Methode Traditonnelle Brut Sparkling Pinot Noir Chardonnay 2011

Our two winemakers have crafted Methode Traditonnelle for over 30 years and are proud to craft each wine on site every step of the way. Fine persistent effervescence eludes to the high quality of this handmade Méthode Traditionnelle wine. The rare, extended time of ten years on lees has resulted in a complex flavour profile and layered texture. Fragrant and intriguing, the palate evolves from Citrus notes into deeper flavours of almond, brioche and truffle. Smooth and velvety, the finish is lengthy and silky. “Toasty, bready, rich and ready core with aromas of brioche and nut, roasted stone fruits, citrus peel and baked apple. A powerful mousse engages the palate first with flavours of oat and wholewheat bread, baked apple then lemon. Dry, lengthy, crisp and delicious. Best drinking from today and through 2026+. 5 ????? 94/100 ” Cameron Douglas Master Sommelier, Nov. 2020
