Traditional Method Sparkling

Grape Varieties

Winemaker Notes

This sparkling wine was crafted in the traditional champagne method, using 60% estate Chardonnay and 40% estate Pinot Noir grapes. 2010 was an exceptional year to try our hand at our first traditional method sparkling wine, as the vintage was conducive to the retention of acidity, a slow ripening curve, and development of the perfect sparkling grape conditions. The grapes were harvested in fall of 2010 and after the sparkling press cycle, the wine was fermented and aged for io months in barrel. In July of 2011, the wine was bottled and put to rest for q years on its lees. The final step was completed in April of 2020, where the wine was disgorged and finished with zero dosage, resulting in a dry brut nature sparkling wine.
