2017 Blanc de Blancs Reserve

Blanc de Blancs translates to “white of whites,” meaning we use only white grapes to make this wine. In the case of the 2017 vintage, we made a blend of 100% Chardonnay. We picked the grapes for this Blanc de Blancs Reserve by hand during the cool morning hours to ensure they arrived at the winery in pristine condition.

Overview

This bright and beautiful wine opens with aromas of Meyer lemon, toasted brioche, and green apple, with hints of sweet almond paste in the background. On the palate, this wine has a frothy mousse with notes of mandarins, lemon, and pear, along with a nice toastiness from the yeast aging. The acidity is elegant and well-balanced, and the long finish is accented by a bright burst of citrus fruit.

Occasion

This wine would pair beautifully with a bowl of linguine and clams or seared scallops. If you want to keep it simple, serve it alongside some spring vegetable crudites with a creamy labneh dip.
