Rare Hare Sparkling

Rare Hare Sparkling 2023 from the Mornington Peninsula brings delicate citrus fruit together with inviting baked-goods aromas and a gentle honeyed richness. This Chardonnay-based sparkling offers an enticing balance of freshness and savoury appeal, making it a lovely choice for celebrations, seafood lunches or simply starting the weekend in style.

Serve chilled alongside freshly shucked oysters, smoked salmon blinis or crisp calamari with lemon. These suggested pairings complement its citrus character while allowing the richer bakery notes to shine. For relaxed entertaining, pour Rare Hare 2023 Sparkling with warm cheese gougères, letting the contrast of savoury pastry and fresh fruit set the mood.

Delicate citrus flavours provide the wine’s fresh foundation, with baked-goods and honey notes adding depth and aromatic warmth. The appeal lies in that interplay of bright fruit and richer accents rather than fruit alone. It’s an inviting Mornington Peninsula sparkling wine with enough character to carry from the first toast into lunch.
