Creamy and silky on the palate, with striking texture and aromatic nuance.. Sweet floral notes, apricot, gentle red berries and exotic spice notes shape this nuanced, resonant Blanc de Noirs. Dosage is 2 grams per liter.

REGION

United States, California, Sonoma, Sonoma Coast

Sonoma Coast AVA runs from San Pablo Bay in the south to Mendocino County in the north. It includes 7,000 vineyard acres and earned AVA status in 1987. Its proximity to the Pacific Ocean means it gets double the rainfall of nearby inland appellations and the ocean gives the appellation a relatively cool climate. Chardonnay and Pinot Noir can thrive in these conditions, and there are numerous producers making critically acclaimed Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.
