Palate
Look forward to refreshing aromas of orange blossom, Fuji apple, and delicate notes of candied ginger. Although dry, this wine expresses lively acidity on the palate, with bright flavors of
white cranberry and lemon zest and subtle traces of melon
Growing Conditions
The 2021 growing season was one we’d like to see every year if only that were possible. It was an excellent growing season, with a mild but sunny spring and plenty of sun and rain throughout the summer. Cooler weather settled in early September, but we still had plenty of sun to continue the ripening. We harvested fruit for the sparkling wines earlier this year than any previous season. We didn’t get as much rain as we often do in the fall, so disease pressure remained low. October gave us plenty of sunshine, balanced with an adequate amount of rain to keep the vines healthy, which further helped in developing optimal ripeness. Early released white wines show bright fruit, beautiful aromatics, and a slightly softer mouthfeel. Red wines will generally be of good to very good quality and worth cellaring.
Food Pairing
This wine is perfect for light spring and summer salads, fruit and cheese boards, or delicate fish dishes
