Hardys The Riddle Brut Reserve
Description
Hardys The Riddle Brut Reserve — South Eastern Australia, 11% ABV. Medium straw with a green-gold hue, crystal clear with fine, persistent bubbles. The nose offers fresh lime, white peach, and lifted floral notes. On the palate, bright acidity and a creamy mouthfeel give it more presence than its price suggests. Made in the brut style — dry, with clean fruit and no residual sweetness.
On-trade positioning: Australian sparkling at a fraction of Champagne cost, with a 170-year heritage house behind it. The natural choice for celebrations, set-menu functions, and welcome-drinks packages where a sparkling wine is needed and budget matters. Works as the everyday BTG sparkling option on any wine list, and gives floor staff a credible, price-friendly alternative when guests balk at Champagne pricing. Versatile pairing: canapés, seafood, fried starters, or solo as an aperitif.
