Product Description

Taste Shimmering with a stream of tiny bubbles, it opens with lively aromas of citrus, green apple, fresh pear and freshly-baked bread. Creamy and elegant on the palate, it's infused with fresh lemon zest and citrus blossom then deepens into ripe peach, Meyer lemon, yeasty notes and subtle minerality. The lingering finish is lemony, polished and fresh. Crafted in the labor-intensive Méthode Champagneoise, practiced in the Champagne region of France. Following bottle fermentation the wine was aged in the same bottle on the yeast lees for nineteen months, gradually developing the classic creamy texture and brioche-like character.

With approximately sixty miles of rugged Pacific coastline and the mighty Russian River winding its way inland, the whole region is blessed with mild, Mediterranean conditions: Warm, sunny days and cool, foggy nights which allow for slow, even maturation, optimal flavor development and ideal sugar to acid balance. The county accommodates a number of different grape varieties with remarkable success. The regions closest to the coast are home to delicate varieties such as Pinot Noir, which need cool conditions to be their most expressive. Late-maturing varieties such as Cabernet Sauvignon thrive in warmer temperatures, further inland.
