A super frothy, expressive, and layered sparkling wine with savory notes of dried herbs and strawgrass layered over creamy citrus and baked orchard fruit. Everything builds beautifully on the medium-bodied palate, where hints of toasted almonds and French pastry add depth and texture to the long, elegant finish. The 2019 growing season was ideal for sparkling wine production—a cooler year that allowed Chardonnay to ripen slowly and evenly. Made using the méthode traditionnelle, the fruit was hand-picked and whole cluster pressed. Fermentation lasted 20 days at 51°F, followed by cold settling, cold stabilization, racking, and filtration.
This feels like a familiar friend, showing approchable and lifted honeysuckle and grapefruit character alongside hints of white peach and a creamy, rich, layered mousse that resolves with balanced sweetness. Made from 100% estate-grown Valvin Muscat, the fruit was destemmed directly to press and cold settled before racking. Fermentation was cool and arrested at the desired levels of residual sugar and alcohol. The wine was then racked, filtered, and sent to Lakewood Vineyards for force carbonation and bottling.
This is exactly the kind of wine you crave on a hot, humid summer day—equally perfect at the end of a meal, poolside, or lounging beachside. It’s a bright, cherry-scented and expressive sparkler, bursting with honeysuckle and jasmine florals, unmistakable notes of white peach and candied peach rings, and a creamy, sweet mousse that finishes off-dry. You can never be too much of a wine snob to enjoy this—and if you say you don’t, you’re just lying to yourself. Made from 90% Valvin Muscat and 10% Barbera, all estate-grown, the fruit was machine-picked, crushed, and destemmed directly to press. After a standard press cycle, the juice was cold settled before racking and inoculated with Epernay II yeast. Fermentation lasted 20 days at an average temperature of 55°F before it was arrested; the wine was then racked, blended, filtered, and sent to Lakewood Vineyards for force carbonation and bottling.
