Connoisseurs Guide
*Two Stars* Very much true to the Blanc de Blancs model with a defined minerally streak to its lean, lightly lemony, nicely autolyzed aromas, Schramsberg's is a crisp, explosively effervescent working that brings a bit more yeasty richness into play in the mouth. It is charged with plenty of brisk, palate-cleansing acidity but does not err to ungainly tartness, and while never too austere to be sipped on its own, it will make first-rate drinking with a platter of briny, fresh oysters.

Wine Enthusiast
*Editors' Choice* Delicious lemon-meringue aromas make a great start for this medium-bodied Chardonnay-based wine. Flavors are lively, lemony, with baking-spice accents. A buttery, creamy element carries into the lingering, tangy finish. (JG)

Wine Spectator
Elegant and rich, with lemon tart and yeasty cinnamon aromas leading to sleek yet creamy flavors of apple and spiced almond that linger. (TF)
