About This Wine
Brut Reserve is a blend of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay that showcases the ripe fruit flavors characteristic of Napa in balance with the rich, toastiness of yeast aging. To create this complex sparkling wine, we select some of our more powerful cuvees as blend components, building weight and intensity without sacrificing the bright fruit characters that bring freshness.

Profile
This wine opens up with notes of toasted brioche, baking spice, and roasted nuts. While the impact of the yeast aging is evident, aromas of cherry, red apple, orange zest, and hints of yellow peach accent the toastiness. On the palate, this is a powerful and complex wine with a soft mousse and creamy texture. Yeasty, baked bread notes are complemented by refreshing red apple, yellow plum, and juicy orange, leading into a long, rich finish.
