Historically Clover Hill has followed a traditional pathway of vintage and non-vintage Methode Traditionnelle sparkling wines. But are forging a new path. We believe the most critical elements of sparkling wine are distinctive styles, consistently produced which enables consumers to develop a deep understanding and trust in our brand. Multi-Vintage is a story of complexity in our base wines. Across vintages we use four different techniques to hold reserve wines, giving our winemakers more creative freedom, resulting in more expressive wines. Our reserve wine approach preserves freshness and character and provides our winemaking team with the ultimate conditions to deliver our house style. Our Multi-Vintage philosophy is an expression of place, house style and consistency. Blending the best vintages and wine making techniques to build complexity and harmony for outstanding, consistent cuvees each year. Exceptionnelle the epitome of the Clover Hill House style. Ultimately, we want to share the beauty, elegance, and complexity of sparkling wines with those who choose to discover them.

A vibrant Tasmanian sparkling; 59/35/6% chardonnay/pinot noir/pinot meunier. Shows light straw with green flashes in the glass and a fine, energetic bead. Citrus and stone fruits on the nose with some crunchy green apple, dabs of cream, proving bread, white flowers, sea spray and stone. Crisp, balanced and refreshing with a briney, mineral line; all detail and velocity and outstanding, sapid drinking at this price. - Dave Brookes

A good opening act. Demur, dry and considerably more classy than most domestic fizz. The modest dosage holds the clutch in a mode if restraint, with hints of citrus, orchard fruits and freshly lain tatami straw revealed with air. Lees-derived creaminess is applied sparingly, conferring a subtle nuttiness without any toasty excess. A wine that is strongly reflective of the grower idiom, if comparisons must be made with Champagne. Very good driinking.
