2022. More complex aromas and flavors than most pet-nat that I’ve had. Pulled out of the beer fridge because I wanted an Averna Spritz before dinner. ~200 mL of Sparkling Wine for two spritzes means there was enough left to enjoy on its own. — 3 months ago
Good but I’m realizing this is my least favorite of the Rhys portfolio. — 2 months ago
Really wonderful. Well balanced. Plenty of front end fruit — 3 months ago
I love this bubbly! It has been a long time since I found this bubbly in my area. Creamy, complex, honeyed brioche buns, apples, minerals, lemon, just delicious for the price point! Although, this wine is up 40% from what I use to purchase @ ten years ago! — a month ago
Went through a dramatic slow journey once opened from a big fruity nose that would have made me guess a young gamay, followed by a teeth chipping tannic front, and then (maybe an hour in?) settled down like a older confident burgandy. — 2 months ago

Cheers to top quality bubbles from the Anderson Valley of the North Coast of California!
This wine is made with a blend of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes.
It’s beautifully balanced with layers of autolytic characteristics like toasted almond, pie crust, brioche, biscuit, marzipan, nougat, thanks to 5 YEARS on the lees…
It has a creamy mouthfeel maintaining freshness with notes of white peach, apple, raspberry, lemon zest, white blossom…
Mousse is fine and persistent. — 14 days ago
