Overview

Tasmania is renowned as Australia’s home of great quality sparkling wine. This Cuvée is made from wines grown on multiple sites in Tasmania, all producing excellent sparkling wine fruit.

All batches are kept separate during winemaking to maximise blending options and the complexity of the final wines. The wines go through secondary fermentation in bottles and are aged on yeast lees for as long as possible; the average tirage of the final blend is 2 years. This blend is made with 52% Chardonnay and 48% Pinot Noir.

Expert Reviews

"Pale straw-green; a multi-vintage blend, the varieties not specified, but presumably chardonnay and pinot noir; is crisp and vibrant, with a long, lingering dry finish." 91 points - James Halliday, Australian Wine Companion 2013, 17 July 2012

"Another tidy Jansz NV with plenty of vibrant, fresh melon and citrus fruit aromas and a little peach here too; quite youthful and fresh. The palate delves more into red fruit territory with a fine, smooth texture, pear and melon through the middle palate, and some pithy peach skin grip through the finish. Nice balance here." 91 points -

Nick Stock, Good Wine Guide 2013, November 2012

Winery Profile

Jansz Tasmania vineyard lies in the Tamar Valley in the heart of the Pipers River region in north eastern Tasmania. With a mantle of red basalt soils and a cool climate moderated by the proximity of Bass Strait, the Jansz Tasmania vineyards are ideal for allowing grapes to ripen slowly and develop the lingering acidity essential to produce a premium sparkling wine. Jansz was Tasmania’s first sparkling wine to be made according to the traditional méthod champenoise and, as the only Tasmanian specialist solely devoted to the art of sparkling winemaking, Jansz Tasmania has since come to describe the technique used in creating each of their definitive wines as Méthode Tasmanoise.
