Ocean Reserve 2020

A Giving Wine
2020 Ocean Reserve

The 2020 Ocean Reserve is a tribute to both elegance and impact—a limited production vintage Blanc de Blancs that gives back with every bottle. Crafted with the same coastal influence that shapes our vineyards, this sparkling gem carries the freshness and vitality of the sea in every sip. This vintage, we’re proud to support Heal the Bay, a non-profit in Southern California, helping to mitigate the effects of runoff from the Los Angeles fires into the waterways and eventually into the ocean. Big News! Iron Horse was honored to be listed as a Top 100 Bay Area Corporate Philanthropist by San Francisco Business Times again in 2025.

Customer Reviews

“Blanc de Blancs lovers have the most discerning tastes.”

Iron Horse Co-Founder Barry Sterling

“This wine offers vanilla, coconut and toasted brioche tones that lift out of the glass before a plush, fine-beaded mousse soothes the palate. Pastry shop flavors have a sense of sweetness to round off the wine’s texture, leaving it smooth and soft. 92 points.” — Jim Gordon

TASTING NOTES

The aroma radiates vibrancy. A bright splash of green apple and zesty lemon greets the first sip, while a luxuriously creamy texture carries the flavors smoothly across the palate. Ocean-kissed minerality emerges mid-sip, leading to a beautifully refreshing finish with just a hint of sea breeze.


WINEMAKER NOTES

This cuvée is a blend of two Chardonnay clones – Clone 4 and Rued Clone, hand harvested – from six different blocks on the estate. The dosage for this wine is 5 ml 2018 Heart of the Vineyard Chardonnay LEX and 4 ml Heart of the Vineyard Chardonnay.

Popcorn and Bubbly

One of the great all time pairings is popcorn and bubbly – especially stovetop popcorn made with extra virgin olive oil. A perfect treat for date night. Let’s get popping!!!! Our preferred olive oil is from our friends and neighbors at Olive Queen in Forestville, CA.
