Sunrise from Section28

A celebration of the Adelaide Hills terroir, Section28 Sunrise is a semi-hard alpine cheese crafted with precision and passion. This unique creation brings together raw milk, traditional French cheesemaking techniques, and the vibrant influence of BK Wines’ Pétillant-naturel lees.

The Craftsmanship:

• Lees Washing: The lees from BK Wines’ Chardonnay are collected mid-vintage and used to wash the cheese twice weekly for three months, imparting floral and fruity flavors.
• Aging Process: Following the washing, the cheese is aged for an additional six months in Section28’s cave, developing complex roasted nut and umami notes that beautifully balance its fruity rind.
• Local Roots: BK Wines’ Chardonnay grapes are sourced just kilometers from Section28, making Sunrise a true expression of the Adelaide Hills’ local flavor.

Tasting Notes:

• Rind: A golden hue with fresh, fruity aromatics.
• Paste: Smooth and creamy, with hints of stone fruits like peach and nectarine, layered over grassy and nutty undertones.

Serving Suggestions:

• Pair with plain crackers and fresh summer fruits to highlight its vibrant character.
• Enjoy with a glass of BK Wines’ Pétillant-naturel for the ultimate local pairing.

Seasonal Availability:
Sunrise is made immediately after vintage each year and is aged for six months, available from September to December.
