“Iron Horse is truly the pinnacle of Sparkling Wine in California.”
“I fell in love with [Brut X} on our Sonoma trip in February. I honestly like it better than Veuve!!”
TASTING NOTES
Delicate aromas rise from the glass — warm pastry, a whisper of vanilla, a trace of sun-ripened berries, and a lift of citrus. On the palate, the texture is luxuriously smooth, balanced by a lively thread of acidity that brings clarity and precision. A burst of crisp apple greets the front of the palate, giving way to a soft, almost honeyed note of dried stone fruit at the center. The finish lingers gently, touched by a subtle echo of almond cream.
WINEMAKER NOTES
Our dosage for the 2021 Brut X is 4 ml 2019 Native Yeast Chardonnay and 4 ml 2019 Gold Ridge Pinot Noir.
Sparkling Wine with Mexican food is a startling and delicious match, especially with an elegant and sophisticated dish like this recipe for Red Enchiladas with Cheese. Serve with a side of guacamole. Avocados and bubbly are both rich in umami. (Umami is like a “super flavor” – a special “deliciousness” that scientists consider a unique, fifth taste.) The pairing works because of complimentary richness and creamy texture, This recipe serves six to eight.
