Description of J Vineyards Russian River Valley Cuvée 20 Champagne Blend
J Vineyards Russian River Valley Cuvée 20 Champagne Blend
TASTING NOTES: Nuanced aromas of toasted almond, followed by notes of Braeburn apple, dried cranberry and ginger snap. A delicate dance of bubbles leads to a soft palate with flavours of lemon meringue pie, as the wine's creaminess is whisked away by a lively finish.
APPELLATION: Russian River Valley
VINEYARD: J Vineyards
PREPARATION: The grapes for this cuvée were hand-harvested into small quarter-ton bins and placed as whole clusters, without destemming, into a French Coquard press for a gentle, low-pressure pressing to minimize the breakdown of grape skins and seeds. Each vineyard lot was fermented and kept separate until blending. Ultimately, the cuvée was assembled and cold-stabilized to remove excess tartrates and then bottled in the spring.
PAIRING: Pair this versatile sparkler with Dungeness crab cake or lobster roll, white cheddar popcorn or goat cheese rolled with herbes de Provence.
