The Voyager Estate Sparkling is made from Chenin Blanc grown on Voyager's Weightmans Block 1 in Margaret River. This early ripening patch delivers full and punchy fruit character while retaining excellent natural acidity at lower potential alcohol
The 2023 Voyager Estate Sparkling Chenin Blanc is made using the traditional method, following a short maturation in tank, the wine was bottled and remained on lees until February, when it was disgorged with a light dosage of four to five g/L. The result is a lively yet subtly complex sparkling wine that is sure to have wide appeal.
"94 Points. Produced via the traditional method, this is obviously a fresh style given its youth, but it’s made well. Full of yellow nectarine and lemon, some lightly poached quince sprinkled with ginger powder and the merest hint of toastiness, a touch of salinity, too. The dosage is low at 2.5g/L, yet perfectly poised, keeping this balanced and lively. A very good if uncomplicated fizz.”- Jane Faulkner, The Wine Companion
