The reserve range of numbered bottles of Burgundian classics is called Conservation Coast: a cool climate, terroir-driven range that has become a highlight for chefs and sommeliers. It has been awarded the Sommeliers Selection Award many times and is Whalehaven’s flagship range. Two vintages of both the Chardonnay and Pinot Noir are tasted in this exclusive experience.
