and dried rose petals

Despite having over 40-plus acres of vineyards in the northeasterly sector of Napa just south of Calistoga

plum reduction and cherry preserve flavors coursing through atop a well-imbedded graphite spine

ripening proceeded slowly during the long warm days

Argyle Blanc de Noirs 2018 (750ml) California Russian River Valley Chardonnay and dried rose petalsThe 2017 sparkling wine vintage in the Willamette Valley was precise, full of beautiful natural acidity and tension in a classically cool September harvest. The windy, high elevations of the Eola Amity Hills, and specifically, our Spirit Hill Vineyard, is the source for our Blanc de Noirs. Pinot Noir builds red fruited depth and firm structure, while the increased proportion of Pinot Meunier this year highlights even more floral freshness and lift.
