The Chardonnay grapes are sourced from the North Coast Appellation coming from specifically 63% Napa, 30% Sonoma, 4% Mendocino, and 3% Marin. The wine is mostly (79%) fermented in stainless steel with 21% being fermented in barrels.
This sparkling wine has a pale straw color with tiny streaming bubbles forming a fine mousse in the glass.
There are enticing aromas of nutty citrus, bitter grapefruit with some creamy sweet brioche. On the palate the citrus stands out with lemon and grapefruit flavors being served on toasted bread with creamy butter. This nicely follows through in the finish.
Lady Elena Caviar Pairing
O My Setra Caviar (Osetra): The nutty creaminess of the Osetra Caviar is complementing the nuttiness in the Schramsberg Blanc de Blancs sparkling wine and leaves you with a clean finish. A great Lady Elena Caviar pairing.
