Blend of Chardonnay (55%) and Pinot Noir (45%). Pale gold color. Aromas of freshly baked bread, toasted nuts, white flowers, citrus zest and a chalky/smoky note. Flavors of grapefruit, green apple, tropical fruits, roasted nuts, and a lovely note of brioche. Long and lingering mineral driven finish. Vibrant acidity along with wonderful tension and complexity. Creamy mousse and texture with a steady stream of fine bubbles. So beautifully savory. Thank you Jason B. for sharing this beautiful wine (and storing it so well) to toast Matt A’s 50th Birthday! — 7 days ago

New vintage. Solid SLO Pinot. Good value. — 4 months ago
Decant and pour. On the nose: dark fruit, pencil shavings, green bell pepper, leather, mushrooms. Taste: a brooding, still austere, structured wine with dark fruit, cassis, smoked earth, cigar, minerals, crushed stone. Some pronounced tannins want you to give it more time for a better score in the future.

2024 vintage. Old-school, Oregon pinot stylings that just hit differently. Medium body. Starts off as a lowly workhorse, then intensifies into the thoroughbred this winery is perfectly capable of raising. Picked up two cases at a resto cost sub-$25 a btl. 4.1.26. — 7 months ago

Pale lemon in color with a golden hue.
Nose of limes, yeast, earth, citrus, brioche, minerals, spices, sea salt and light herbs.
Medium plus in body with medium acidity and medium sized bubbles.
Dry on the palate with lemons, green apples, herbs, yeast, earth, spices, white pepper and brioche.

This is a very tasty sparkling wine from Russian River Valley. Feels very fresh, complex and entertaining. Nicely balanced and elegant.
This 6 year old Blanc de Blanc will continue to age nicely in the next 7 years.
Good right out of the bottle, and good by itself or with food.
100% Chardonnay grapes were aged for 4 years on the lees.
13.5% alcohol by volume.
