While renowned for their still wines, this sparkling project has been quietly evolving since the estate’s first harvest—bringing the intensity and precision of still winemaking into the sparkling realm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"484\" data-end=\"856\" class=\"\"\u003eA blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Meunier and Pinot Noir, Solstice 1st Edition is built around the 2019 vintage, with 75% of the wine undergoing up to six months’ fermentation in oak barrels—mostly neutral, with a touch of new oak for added texture. The remaining 25% comes from a foudre-aged solera of reserve wines from 2018 to 2020, introducing further depth and complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"858\" data-end=\"1046\" class=\"\"\u003eThe dosage liqueur, aged in oak barrels and described by winemaker Liam Idzikowski as “tasting like PX”, brings a hint of maturity and sweetness without overwhelming the wine’s fresh core.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1048\" data-end=\"1250\" class=\"\"\u003eThe result is radiant and expressive, with flavours of apricot, blood orange, orange blossom and toasted almonds.
