2019 Jardin d'Hiver Cuvée

In 2018, our Château was graced with a dramatic garden conservatory called the Jardin d’Hiver - a grand glass room that immerses our guests in the spectacular Carneros landscape while sheltering from the elements. In celebration, we present this limited edition cuvée, a dry and richly layered méthode traditionnelle Late Disgorged Ultra Brut, a unique and rare combination of low dosage and extended aging that enhances the finely tuned blend of Carneros Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.

Tasting Notes

This cuvée’s unique blend of extra aging brings a layered creaminess and complexity to the senses while its low dosage makes it very crisp. Simultaneously elegant and supple, the 2019 Jardin d’Hiver opens with notes of fresh sliced pear, Meyer lemon blossom, quince, and key lime intermingle with white nectarine and pie crust. On the palate the wine is bright, elegant and tactile with a supple mid-palate and a textural lengthy finish.
