A blend of fruit from two different Marlborough vineyards, each vineyard is prepared meticulously to ensure flavoursome crops that will express themselves individually in a blended wine. You can expect every bit of aroma and flavour you have grown to know and love Marlborough for.

Cecilia Brut is a blend of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes. The chardonnay grapes are picked, lightly pressed and fermented to absolute dryness. Following primary fermentation, wild malolactic fermentation is encouraged. The pinot noir grapes must be handled very carefully as too much maceration can result in a salmon pink or rose coloured wine.  After a very quick transition from vineyard to winery, the grapes are very lightly pressed following the same process as the chardonnay grapes. After a couple of months the wines are carefully blended and prepared for the secondary fermentation with sugar and yeast, to produce a wine with natural effervescence and a delicate fine mousse.
