Biodynamic Central Otago producer Quartz Reef has a stellar reputation for sparkling (and still) wines. Delicate and precise, its flagship Vintage displays beautifully integrated aromas of freshly baked bread, subtle lemon, green apple and aspirin-like minerality. The palate has similar finesse and plenty of harmony, it’s a lovely melding of concentrated fruit and complex autolytic elements. Very textural with a rich mid palate, the distinctive minerally line of acidity lends a crisp and very long citrussy finish. Impressive and delicious.
