Winemaker Notes
A vibrant straw color, this wine has a delicate bead with a lovely persistent and creamy mousse. Hints of citrus and strawberry on the nose are complemented with elegant aromas of bread and nuts from the time spent on yeast lees. A clean line of natural acidity is balanced perfectly with the dosage to create a true representation of arguably one of the best sparkling wines Taltarni has ever produced.
Blend: Chardonnay 62%, Pinot Noir 32%, Pinot Meunier 6%

Showing classic traditional flavors that are reminiscent of the Champagne district in France, the 2011 Taltarni Taché shows excellent richness and style. The wine's red fruit, light yeast, and chalk should go nicely with bacon wrapped seared scallops. (Tasted: December 1, 2017, San Francisco, CA)

Established in 1969, Taltarni was one of the founding wineries in the iron-rich Pyrenees wine region in Victoria. John Goelet, a direct descendant of the Guestier wine merchant family of Bordeaux, discovered the Taltarni Vineyard through a worldwide search for a site comparable to the great vineyards of Bordeaux. From the outset, Taltarni has a strong French influence with the initial plantings of Bordeaux varieties including Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot. Soon after, Taltarni extended its plantings with Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay. The Goelet family also sources Shiraz, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier. Taltarni has built its reputation on elegant sparkling wines that are crafted using methode traditionale techniques, as wells as producing exceptional red and white wines. The distinctive labels, featuring a 17th century cartouche, represent the attention to detail and the French elegance and finesses that are hallmarks of all Taltarni wines.
