Clover Hill Cuvée Exceptionnelle MV from Tasmania is a refined, traditional–method sparkling that pours a light straw–green in the glass with a fine, persistent mousse, immediately offering vibrant aromas of citrus, stone fruits and crunchy green apple with creamy brioche and a whisper of sea spray in the background.

On the palate, Clover Hill Cuvée Exceptionnelle MV is all about balance and line – concentrated lemon curd, lime and ripe apple sit over layers of lees–derived creaminess, subtle nuttiness and bakery notes, carried by crisp natural acidity and a briny, mineral thread that drives through to a long, dry, seriously moreish finish.

It is a brilliant match for freshly shucked oysters, scallop carpaccio, prawns, delicate fish dishes, canapés, roast chicken or soft cheeses, making Clover Hill Cuvée Exceptionnelle MV a benchmark Tasmanian sparkling to pour at celebrations, long lunches or any time you want Champagne–level class without the Champagne price.
