Nose

This Blanc de Noirs has elegant mineral, red apple, quince, and biscuit notes on the nose, with hints of vanilla, nectarine, and mandarin.

Palate

The palate is rich and creamy with excellent structure and a long finish dominated by notes of toasted bread, strawberry, and raspberry.

Growing Conditions

Our 2013 Blanc de Noirs, which means “white of blacks” in French, is made of 100% Pinot Noir. As opposed to making red wine from Pinot Noir grapes, where the color comes from contact with the skins during fermentation, these red Pinot Noir grapes go direct to the press to carefully extract the juice from the skins, producing a white wine.

Food Pairing

Pair this wine with halibut ceviche or bagels and lox for a sumptuous brunch with friends.
