Dominique Portet Vintage Brut Nature 2021
Yarra Valley
To accompany the much-lauded Brut Rosé, Dominique Portet has created a limited-release vintage ‘white’ sparkling in the form of this new Brut Nature. Sourced exclusively from fruit from their leased vineyard near Gladysdale in the Upper Yarra, a region that has been synonymous with premium sparkling production dating back to early plantings in the 80s and 90s, at an elevation of 220 to 250 metres.

Description
The blend is 45% Pinot Noir and 55% Chardonnay, with 5 to 10% of the overall base wine coming from reserve wines consisting of 8 to 10 years of back vintages to add complexity. The wine is left on lees for 36 months with absolutely zero dosage, hence Brut Nature.
Ben Portet comments that, due to the low cropping from this vineyard, the fruit already has a lot of richness. It’s a similar story in Champagne, where producers are using less dosage due to warmer vintages and riper fruit.
