You can tell that this is a much warmer climate than Champagne as this is a bit riper and has more richness than real champagne. Beeswax, golden delicious, and lemon curd round out the mouth. Nice persistence and not as dry as you'd expect for a Brut zero, but refreshing all the same.

Sep 18th, 2016Lots of acidity and tons of minerality. Notes of citrus. Pairs well with cured meat and incredibly well with blue cheese. Medium finish.

Jan 9th, 202160% Pinot, 40% Chard. 100% wild fermentation but doesn't taste like it. A rounder body from the Chard but still a good amount of acid. Very nice!
