Drink it now or cellar for up to 8 years. No need to decant. Located in Tasmania's Tamar Valley wine district, House of Arras is a prestigious Australian winery founded by Ed Carr with the aim of producing high-quality, refreshing wines from grapes such as Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, which thrive in the island's cool climate. Since the late 1990s, House of Arras wines have garnered widespread acclaim from critics and the public. A by Arras is a classic blend of the three Champagne grape varieties: Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Pinot Meunier. After a second fermentation in the bottle and racking under pressure, the wine ages on the lees for three years, before undergoing a further stabilization phase in tanks and then in bottle. The result is a mature and complex wine that reveals a medium-intense straw yellow color enhanced by a fine and persistent perlage. The aromatic profile is intense and layered, with initial notes of red fruits and citrus zest followed by spicy hints of brioche and nougat, with a few spicy and saline touches. On the palate, it is soft and lively, savory, and refreshing. It has a creamy texture and a brisk acidity that lingers on the long finish. Try it with vegetable or shrimp tempura, oysters, and sushi.
