Wine Details
Price:
$29.99 per bottle
Description:
The 1999 Cuvée sparkling wine is 70% Pinot Noir. These red grapes are whole cluster pressed to avoid color and tannin. They are then “cool” fermented in stainless steel tanks. The Pinot Noir contributes fresh cherry-like fruit with crisp, clean acidity. Chardonnay makes up the remaining 30% and is whole cluster pressed, then barrel-fermented and completes a second (Malo-Lactic) fermentation. The Chardonnay contributes a rich and creamy complexity. The wine is fermented in the bottle in the traditional Méthode Champenoise style. It is left 6 years surlie for further richness and complexity. Finished in a “dry” style, this is meant to be a dinner wine and can be served with almost any meal appropriate for white wine.
