Customer Reviews

“No one will set it down and just forget about it.”

Debra M.

“Succulent and seductive, with festive raspberry and lemon crème brûlée flavors accented by fresh gingerbread and spy stones, which glide on the creamy finish. 93 points.” – Tim Fish

Wine Spectator Magazine

“2018 vintage – Ranked #1 American Sparkling Wine.”

Wine Spectator Magazine

“Fascinating but restrained flavors of apricot, yellow plum and raspberry are revealed on the palate, backed by subtle acidity and a nice, dry tension in the balance. This elegant wine is light amber/salmon in color, and offers complexity, depth and a mouthwatering texture. 94 points. — Jim Gordon

Wine Enthusiast Magazine

“After tasting, with friends, a half dozen of your offerings, my daughter and her fiancé chose the Wedding Cuvée for their December 9 wedding. It was a huge hit! Guests kept exclaiming how good it was… thank you for helping to make the celebration as wonderful as it could be!”

TASTING NOTES

Pale Salmon in color with lively bubbles and Mousse. The 2019 Wedding Cuvée has a great raspberry aromas, followed by strawberry and a touch of lemon zest. Great red fruit flavors on the front palate that extend to the mid palate, followed by a burst of red apple and creaminess leading to a grapefruit finish with amazing texture throughout.


WINEMAKER NOTES

Wedding Cuvée is our interpretation of a Blanc de Noirs. In blending this wine we chose Pinot Noir lots that were extremely expressive and fruit forward. Then in a decided step away from convention, we blend in a bit of steely Chardonnay to add a firm acid backbone. Hand harvested in the chill of early morning our Pinot Noir is gently
pressed as whole clusters. The juice slowly ferments in stainless steel tanks at 62° to 65°f retaining bright fruit aromas and flavors in the wine. The dosage for the 2019 Wedding Cuvée is 8 mls Blanc de Noir Lex, 12 mls 2019 Rued Clone Chardonnay.
