Wine Enthusiast
The second release of the winery's Brut is again 70% Pinot Noir and 30% Chardonnay. It's a bright gold color and loaded with scents and flavors of orange blossoms, tropical fruits, chanterelle mushrooms and toasted nuts. The riot of flavors is balanced beautifully and sharpened by firm acidity. It was disgorged in spring 2019.
