Sourced from the cool-climate hills of the Yarra Valley, Ovata is a contemporary take on Australian Sparkling. Crafted in collaboration with Sparkling winemaker Natalie Cleghorn and the team at Oakridge, the range is built around hand-selected parcels of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Traditional bottle fermentation brings texture and finesse, while a modern lens keeps the style fresh, vibrant and irresistibly drinkable.
Inspired by the Latin word ovatus - to rejoice, applaud, celebrate - Ovata isn’t about pomp or ceremony; it’s about the energy of shared moments. A spontaneous toast. A long lunch that lingers. A reason to gather, or no reason at all. Sparkling that’s refined yet approachable, and unapologetically enjoyable.
Own the occasion with Ovata.
