Ros Ritchie Blanc de Blanc 2022 from Victoria’s cool‑climate Upper Goulburn high country is a finely poised traditional‑method chardonnay sparkling, all citrus, green apple and chalky finesse in the glass. Expect lifted aromas of lemon zest and crunchy apple with hints of white florals, almond and a touch of brioche from time on lees, setting up a very elegant, refreshing style. The palate is light to medium bodied with a fine, persistent bead, crisp acidity and a long, dry finish that feels beautifully clean and moreish.

Ros Ritchie Blanc de Blanc 2022 is tailor‑made for aperitif drinking – pour it with oysters, prawns, smoked salmon or simple salted crisps to let that citrus‑and‑mineral line shine. It will also sit happily alongside soft cheeses, sushi and lighter entrées, where its elegance and freshness do the heavy lifting. Serve well chilled in a white‑wine glass to open up the fruit and subtle brioche notes.

What makes Blanc de Blanc 2022 stand out is the combination of high‑country chardonnay purity and traditional‑method texture, delivering a sparkling that feels both seriously crafted and totally effortless to drink. It’s a classy cool‑climate Aussie fizz from a producer with a proven touch for fine, food‑friendly wines.
