Rochford Latitude Yarra Valley Prosecco NV - 12 Bottles

Winery Background

Rochford Wines, based in the Yarra Valley, is a dynamic cellar-door and wine estate that combines premium winemaking with vibrant visitor experiences. Their Latitude range carries the spirit of exploration and regional expression, bringing cool-climate character from Victoria’s vineyards to sparkling format.

Vineyards and Vintage Conditions

Fruit is sourced from Yarra Valley vineyards, where cool nights and moderate daytime temperatures preserve natural freshness. To capture optimum aromatic character, the grapes were harvested at cooler times of the day.This region’s climate ensures that the naturally fruity and floral qualities of Glera and Chardonnay (the varietals used) are well preserved.

Winemaking

This Prosecco comprises 87% Glera and 13% Chardonnay. After primary fermentation in stainless steel tanks under cool conditions, the wine was held on its lees to soften texture and preserve freshness. The secondary fermentation was performed to produce a gentle spritz, offering a lively and refreshing tasting experience. 

Tasting Notes

Food Pairing
