Ridgeview
Limited Release Brut Blanc de Noirs
The 2014 Blanc de Noirs has a burnished pale straw hue with a vibrant mousse. The bouquet is a knockout mixture of hazelnut, smoke and citric fruit, all wonderfully delineated; light leesy aromas emerge with extended aeration. The well-balanced palate features red apples, orange zest and light morello cherry notes, its concentration offset by a beautifully judged line of acidity. This is a very accomplished Blanc de Noirs from Ridgeview. (Neal Martin, Vinous, July 2020)
