There are some other wines are at inception stage, like our 2011 Method Champenoise sparkling, due for release in late 2012. This wine is being made to make use of the fruit from 2011 which was unable to ripen sufficiently to make table wine. But, the climate is perfect for sparkling grapes so we have not had to compromise on quality at all! Currently this wine is resting in bottle, secondary fermentation yeasts having been added!
