OVATA Sparkling Wine Review :
4.3 out of 5 based on 18 reviews.

If you’re someone who loves a beautifully balanced sparkly, then the OVATA Sparkling Wine Review is perfect for you!

OVATA Chardonnay Pinot Noir by Oakridge

Ovata Sparkling Wine in an ice bucket.

OVATA by Oakridge is a Sparkling Wine crafted by experienced Sparkling Winemaker, Natalie Cleghorn, in collaboration with the team at Oakridge Wines.

Leveraging their intimate knowledge of the Yarra Valley, the team at Oakridge has hand-selected premium parcels of the classic Sparkling Wine varietals, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, in which Natalie has then crafted a preeminent Sparkling Wine.

Think aromas of fresh apple, citrus curd and white flowers, overlaid with more complex yeast-derived notes of brioche and toast. The palate has a fine creamy texture and a vibrant freshness.

From the Latin word Ovatus, “Ovata” means to rejoice, applaud and celebrate.

So, when the occasion calls for it. Rise to it. Raise a glass to it. Celebrate it.

Own the occasion with OVATA.

Available at Dan Murphy’s for $24.95 per bottle, or $148.30 for a case of 6.

  • Perfect bubbles for all occasions 🍾

    My friends and I tried this OVATA Chardonnay Pinot Noir by Oakridge for the first time over the weekend. We were all pleasantly surprised by how fruity it tasted without being too sweet. I am normally a Sauvignon Blanc drinker, but I think this will be added to the rotation for something different. The OVATA Chardonnay Pinot Noir is excellent value for money and perfect for any occasion.

  • Just devine

    I loved the Ovata Chardonnay. I love the light flavours and hint of apple and citrus that pops in your mouth like a burst of yum! I shared a glass with my friend who also loved the light refreshing taste. Ovata means rejoice and celebrate which we definitely did.

  • Not too bad! Fruity

    Great bubbly drink! Not as sweet as I thought it would be, very fruit almost apple flavoured! Pricing isn’t too bad and it has beautiful packaging-would be a great gift idea. Yarra valley you have done it again! Overall I personally wouldn’t buy again for myself but my sister in law and brother tried it too and they really liked it.

  • Beautiful Crisp Taste

    A beautiful bubbly – great for drinking on it’s own, or putting in Mimosa’s, which is where my first bottle went! Had to get a second bottle! Colouring is quite light. Taste is refreshing and quite strong. Fruity with definite hints of apple. Good on the pricing side, and the bottle is pretty making it good for gifting too. Good work Yarra Valley on another beautiful wine!

  • Tasty

    Really nice to drink. Was expecting this to be pinkish given the blend, but presents like a usual sparkling. Less sweet than imagined, almost slightly savoury in a present way. It’s Well priced and would consider buying again, worth a shot if up are looking for something a little different!

  • Crisp and refreshing - the perfect Sunday Afternoon drop

    The Ovata Chardonnay Pinot Noir was so fresh, crisp and easy to drink. It had an aroma of stone fruits with a hint of honey. It had a clean and refreshing finish, and, in my opinion is the perfect bottle of wine for a Sunday afternoon with friends. The Ovata Sparkling wine will be a staple in my wine fridge from now on.

  • Okay

    I found this was a bit strong and acidic. I wasn’t able to drink more than one glass. It was refreshing and fruity but it’s not the sort of thing I could drink much of.

  • Strong taste

    Was not a fan of this one. Was a bit on the sour side and not something I would drink or recommend. I felt it was a little overpriced and the cork made it hard to open. If you are a regular drinker of this type of wine you would probably enjoy it.

  • Refreshing, light and Tasty

    Nothing like a glass of Ovata Sparkling Wine to end the weekend! Nice and refreshing. It was bubbly. One glass was enough for me I don’t think I could have more than that.

  • Full bodied taste

    On initial opening the smell was very strong, poured a glass and the colour was quite light and looked great, initial taste was very fruity. First glass went down nicely however the next glass I found the taste a little too strong and the bubbles not quite enough. Would go great as a mimosa but not for me on it’s own.

  • Crisp fruity and fizzy

    Loved the latter taste. Quite nice on a hot sunny weekend. We shared it with few of friends whom we hosted on a weekend and the general opinion was it’s quite crisp, fizzy and very fruity. Apple flavour is quite recognisable.

  • Great Sparlking!

    This bubbly has a great taste-light and refreshing, with a great blend of two great wines, the perfect amount of bubbles, and a great fizz to have with dinner and when celebrating. I would buy it again and would be happy to give it to a friend for a celebration. Good price, for great quality.

  • Loved it!!

    Really enjoyed this bottle. Had me wanting more. Drank this to celebrate the birth of my niece and it went down a treat! You can taste the delicate apple notes and one that can be drank at any occasion (even on a Sunday night whilst cooking dinner which is what I did for my second bottle 🤪)

  • Fruity and Fresh

    I purchased this sparkling wine last week and my family and I cracked it open last night and enjoyed it as a pre-dinner drink. A very enjoyable drop with lots of bubbles, light fruity notes, and a crisp finish. I will be buying this again, especially for get-togethers and celebrations.

    I tried Ovata for the first time today and
    I would highly recommend this wine. It has a nice, fresh taste. Love that the Yarra Valley has produced such an excellent wine.
