Cuvée No.1 was the first wine produced by No.1 Family Estate. This Chardonnay predominant Blanc de Blancs is lees aged to encourage full yeast autolysis. The wine displays texture, finesse and charm. Typical, complex, Champagne-like characters with savoury layers of citrus and stone fruits.

"A seductive and enticing bouquet of complexity and depth with scents of lemon and fresh butter brioche, layers of autolysis complexity with a gentle spice, white flowers and mineral backbone. As the wine touches the palate a rush of textured mousse envelopes the palate carrying flavours of citrus and white peach, the autolysis of 18 months ensures a fine lees and complexity and is carried by a saline and refreshing acid line." Cameron Douglas Ms, October 2023
