Tasting Notes

Our 2018 vintage is a classic expression of our Ultra Brut. A mélange of key lime, honeydew melon, ginger, and green apple on the nose leads into a palate dancing with notes of ripe pineapple, fresh pear, yuzu, and lemon méringue. With a surprisingly mouthwatering complexity, its bright, crisp fruit and delicate minerality ride on a serious structure that leads to a generous effervescence.

Food Pairings

A wine with such textural vibrance and intriguing tension pairs beautifully with a rich, creamy sauced linguine, grilled pineapple fish tacos with pineapple salsa, or foods with a natural voluptuousness such as raw oysters, or Dungeness crab.
