Description
Howard Park Grand Vintage Jete
A wine crafted from the noble sparkling grapes of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, radiating the classic varietal characteristics of citrus, white stone fruit and mixed berries. Aromas of shortbread, meringue and apple tart emerge alongside an underlying mineral edge of oyster shell and shale. Vibrant freshness is evident, as flavours of white grapefruit, lemon pith and finger lime mingle seamlessly. Almond and gingersnap notes become apparent in turn, due to 52 months spent on lees in tirage. A refined and sophisticated bead dances delicately over the palate, amidst a harmony of citrus fruits and green apple, leading to an energetic minerality that unfurls to a lengthy, mouth watering finish.
