Howard Park Jeté Grand Vintage 2019
Howard Park Jeté Grand Vintage 2019
$58, 12.5% alcohol, DIAM cork, Great Southern.
Jeté has been making good quality sparkling wine for some years now but with this release of its Grand Vintage 2019, it’s gone up a gear or two, and really entered elite territory. This wine is a steal at $58. It tastes of Vegemite, strawberries, brine, grapefruit and cooked apples, though get ten wine critics in a room and they’ll all describe it differently. A more accurate thing to say is that it’s a wine of seamless complexity. It rolls through the palate with sparklers attached. The brine/yeasty/interplay here is captivating and delicious. 94 points.
