Dr Edge PJ Dredge Blanc de Noirs 2020

Crunchy green apple, lemon and grapefruit lead the way, with hints of peach and delicate red-fruit blossom adding depth. The mid-palate is rich and finely textured, with brioche, fresh pastry and subtle umami characters developing around a very fine bead. It finishes bone dry, long and energetic, with bright acidity, crushed-stone minerality and a lingering saline edge.

Made by Peter Dredge from predominantly Pinot Noir with a small amount of Pinot Meunier sourced from Tasmania’s Tamar Valley, this traditional-method Blanc de Noirs spent close to five years on lees before being disgorged with zero dosage. A serious, precise Tasmanian sparkling with impressive depth and drive.

Food Match

Excellent with natural oysters, sashimi, scallops or lightly fried seafood. Its richness and very dry finish would also work beautifully with roast chicken or mushroom dishes.
