Leconfield Coonawarra Sparkling Blanc de Blancs celebrates the elegance and purity of Chardonnay grown in the premium cool climate of South Australia’s Coonawarra region. Cold harvesting from our estate vineyards ensured freshness, while a secondary malo-lactic fermentation has delivered a textured, creamy mouthfeel. The wine was matured on lees (sur lie) and the inclusion of a reserve wine, aged in oak, contributes to the overall depth and complexity.

Leconfield Coonawarra Sparkling Blanc de Blancs exhibits fresh apple, citrus blossom and stone fruits with lemon curd and savoury brioche notes, while a fine bead cleanses and extends the palate.

Winemaking:
Following harvest, the fruit was gently pressed with the pressings being kept separate, then a portion back blended. Cool fermentation preserved the varietal intensity and finesse. The wine was prepared for bottling while young and fresh. The fruit for this wine was sourced from the Charleston area of the Adelaide Hills. This cool region is noted for producing elegant Sauvignon Blanc with distinctive varietal character while retaining elegance. The Adelaide Hills region is renown for producing outstanding Sauvignon Blanc. Richard Hamilton Wines has sourced fruit to complement its range of McLaren Vale red wines.
Background:
Roses are synonymous with the Hamilton family with rose gardens surrounding our vineyards in McLaren Vale. The Rosette series proudly celebrates the family’s long standing in the South Australian wine industry since 1837.
Vintage Conditions:
Vintage 2023 was one of the latest ripening and cool, wet seasons for many years. Both winter and spring brought about higher than average rainfalls, ensuring that the vines had plenty of water in the soils to draw from at budburst. However, the cool wet spring resulted in a delay to budburst, pushing back ripening more than 2 weeks later than average in many cases.
