VMV & VMV-LD Tasting Pair
Pickup currently unavailable at Flint Vineyard
Description
VMV and VMV Late Disgorged (LD) are a one-off pair of reserve sparkling wines, years in the making, a special project Ben has worked on since Flint Vineyard opened in 2016.
Made from Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Meunier, VMV is a blend of the best juice from three vintages (2016, 2017, 2018), with two-thirds aged in oak and bottled for secondary fermentation in 2019. Aged on its lees for three years, it was disgorged in November 2022 and has spent two years maturing under cork.
VMV-LD is the same wine, aged on its lees for five years before disgorging in October 2024, showing greater depth and complexity from the extended ageing.
This pair offers a rare opportunity to taste how additional lees ageing shapes the same wine. The gift box includes one bottle of VMV, one bottle of VMV-LD, and a Flint Vineyard Sparkling Wine Stopper.
