DAOSA Natural Réserve
This party guest never disappoints. Made using methode traditionnelle (as favoured by the Champagne region of France), it’s as close as you get to “ooh-la-la” this side of the equator. The crew behind the Daosa sparkling project know their stuff. Terre a Terre’s Xavier Bizot, (from the Bollinger family) and his wife Lucy Croser, (daughter of Petaluma founder and Tapanappa main man Brian Croser) have choreographed a beautiful dance between pinot noir (85%) and chardonnay (15%). Black Swan it ain’t. The citrus floral and strawberry pirouettes are a delight.
Score: 4.5 stars
