House of Arras
2021 Annual Vintage Release
"For nearly a quarter of a century, House of Arras has been sourcing fruit and crafting exceptional sparkling wine from a tapestry of cool-climate vineyards in pristine Tasmania.
This 2021 release is at the perfect balance point of development. I’m particularly excited to release the 2013 vintage wines that showcase the incredible vineyards, contributing to the House of Arras Grand Vintage 2013 and House of Arras Blanc de Blancs 2013. These sparkling wines are true classics in their styles and, while they showcase a fantastic balance at release, they will continue to mature gracefully. Also in the collection is the House of Arras Brut Elite Cuvée No.1601, now in its tenth release.
Headlining the release is the House of Arras E.J. Carr Late Disgorged 2006, with fourteen years on tirage. This sparkling wine is the perfect balance of flavour and elegance. A complex style expressing great sophistication and poise expected of the noble sparkling grape varieties grown in pristine cool-climate vineyards."
