DAOSA Blanc de Blancs 2020
Author: QWINE Reviews
A cut above, this DAOSA Blanc de Blanc 2020 is sublime. Pure and clean, it is one of Australia’s premier sparkling wines.
Made in Methode Traditonnelle and having spent more than four years on lees, it was aged for over three and a half years in bottle before being disgorged with the addition of a low dosage 5g/L in September 2024.
It opens with aromas of white-fleshed nectarines, grapefruit, delicate drops of lemon, green apple, green olives and white strawberries. Precise and seductive, these flow seamlessly to the flavour profile with fine lines of creaminess, almonds, almond meal and flashes of cashews. An attractive fine bead persists and a pastry-like texture lingers leaving a lemony tang in its wake. So much to ponder yet there is so much to embrace, this is an exceptional wine.
