With an inviting, fruity nose, this is a crowd-pleasing, well-made and memorable sparkler with good acidity and lasting freshness. Flavors of tangerine, strawberry and raspberry rise to the fore of the palate, elegantly wrapped around textured elegance. *#11 Top 100 2022* (VB)

Fresh and full of flavour, this bright, focused and ultra-elegant salmon-hued rosé from the heart of the Russian River Valley has well-defined notes of red berries, Bing cherry and apples. A touch of chalkiness and a swirl of florals set the backdrop for a lovely finish. (SS)

A bit reductive on the nose, but with some air you get aromas of baked pear, red cherry and rosemary. Medium-bodied and slightly salty. Strawberry and white tea on the creamy palate.

Wine Advocate
Blended of about two-thirds Pinot Noir and one-third Chardonnay with a splash of Pinot Meunier, the NV Brut Rose sports a very pale salmon-pink color, delivering notes of wild strawberries, McIntosh apples and raspberry leaves with a hint of chalk dust. The palate offers seriously zippy red berries and apple flavors with an impressively fine mousse and well-balanced finish. (LPB)

Wine & Spirits
Strawberries and peaches come to mind in this wine’s summery scent, while its smoky, herbal side lasts in a spicy finish. Open it for a fruit-and-cheese board.
