ADD TO CART
The longer the wine is aged on the yeast in the bottle, or en tirage, the tinier the bubbles, making the wine richer, creamier, more refined, and elegant. This vintage has been aged over seven years en tirage, developing delicate, pinpoint bubbles. A true tête de cuvée, it represents the pinnacle of quality. Extremely limited.
TASTING NOTES
Inviting aromas of golden pastry, roasted nuts, sun-dried stone fruit, and a whisper of citrus peel greet the nose. The palate offers a velvety richness, opening with stewed apple flavors and carrying through with a smooth, harmonious texture that finishes on a lively citrus flourish.
VINEYARD NOTES
Iron Horse is ideally located for growing Chardonnay and Pinot Noir for Sparkling because of our proximity to the ocean.
WINEMAKER NOTES
In blending this wine we chose Pinot Noir and Chardonnay lots that were a bit shy by nose with a touch of ’fruit forwardness’ resulting in a sparkling wine that shows wonderful complexity that is rich, nutty and toasty with a hint of fruit. The dosage for this wine is 8 mls Brut LEX and 8 mls 2020 North Block Pinot Noir and 8 mls 2017 Heart of the Vineyard Chardonnay.
