Palate
This new bubbly is full of red berry characteristics; strawberry aromas are followed by a refreshing combination of raspberry and strawberry flavors, and an effervescent, crisp, clean finish.
Growing Conditions
The 2021 growing season began with frequent rainfall, leading to rapid canopy growth across the farm. The fast-established leaf presence proved crucial, as continued precipitation and cloud cover in summer put a greater level of importance on the solar energy collected in spring. The fall brought enough sunlight and respite from the rain that harvest brought in fruit with a compelling balance of sugar and acid levels. Wines from this vintage will feature a strong backbone of acidity with fragrant aromas and nuanced layers.
