Celebrate International Champagne Day with Méthode Traditionnelle Sparkling
On International Champagne Day, wine enthusiasts around the world gather to celebrate the sparkling wines that bring joy to countless occasions — and an opportunity to explore sparkling wines crafted using the traditional method, or méthode traditionnelle, a technique that has found remarkable expression in Australia's cool-climate regions.
What is Méthode Traditionnelle?
The same process used in the production of Champagne: a secondary fermentation in the bottle that creates fine bubbles and complex flavours, requiring meticulous care and extended lees ageing to develop depth and texture.
Boat O'Craigo's 2023 Méthode Traditionnelle Sparkling
Crafted from select parcels of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, this sparkling wine undergoes extended lees ageing, giving it a rich mouthfeel and a fine, persistent mousse, with complex aromas and crisp acidity.
