OSSA Mthode Traditionnelle 2018

68% Pinot Noir from Tolpuddle in the Coal River Valley and 32% Chardonnay from Norfolk Bay on the Tasman Peninsula. Despite spending five years on lees, the wine exudes youthful vibrancy, boasting aromas of citrus, fresh grapefruit, and preserved lemon. On the palate, it displays remarkable delicacy with notes of lemon curd and subtle mineral undertones. Ossa’s dedication to sustainability is evident in their vineyard practices, with their Belbrook farm on the Island’s East Coast featuring a mix of varieties grown on ironstone/sandstone soils. Committed to organic management and powered by solar energy, Ossa strives to produce Tasmania’s most distinguished wines by sourcing exceptional fruit from the region’s finest vineyards through their winemaker, Liam McElhinney.
