On the nose it welcomes the senses with aromas of potpourri, honeysuckle, grilled peaches, oranges, and watermelon. The sophisticated and dry palate displays flavors of tangerine, wild strawberry, peach, marzipan, and mandarin. A warm toastiness evolves from extended aging on the lees and combines with the ethereal Pinot Noir fruit character. As the wine ages and the tiny bubbles are formed, an elegant wine of great poise evolves.
Remarkably versatile, classic rosé pairings include pork belly, stuffed mushrooms, or strawberry shortcake. It is a beautiful wine for brunch, weddings, and other romantic occasions.

Exciting aromas of gingerbread, grapefruit, caraway, pear skins and crushed almonds. Hints of salted caramel and pie crust. Medium-bodied, with beautifully integrated bubbles and delicious spicy pastry notes. Long and flavorful.

Yeasty and brimming in brioche and custard, this is a rich, generous and textured sparkling wine, made from blending 60% Pinot Noir and 40% Chardonnay and given a minimum of two years of aging. Dried cherry and a hint of dried herb provide complementary contrast
