Brut
Méthode Traditionelle
Varietal - Sparkling Wines Specialty WinesThis classic, non-vintage Brut is a blend of Chardonnay (75%) and Pinot Noir (25%). The grapes, harvested in early to mid-August, were carefully selected from a vineyard planted at 4,300 feet in Engle, New Mexico where cool nights prolong the growing season.
About
75% Chardonnay, 25% Pinot Noir
This sparkling wine was produced in the traditional method, also known as méthode champenoise or méthode traditionelle used for all Champagnes, whereby the wine undergoes a secondary fermentation inside the bottle to create bubbles. Kept on tirage for 24 months, the wine developed a rich complexity and toasty finish that complements the sophisticated apple flavors.
