 Tasted by VinoTx on 11/4/2007 & rated 91 points: Didn't think I liked sparkling rose's but this was outstanding. Like a cherry cobbler. Not too many bubbles, but refreshing with a long finish. (2808 views)
 Tasted by ctunes on 10/5/2006 & rated 91 points: One of my favorite Brut Rose Champagnes....second only to Laurent Perrier in my tasting and enjoying (2908 views)
 Tasted by flashvictor on 6/28/2006 & rated 90 points: Similar notes to last bottle but more integrated. A better bottle. (3158 views)
 Tasted by AllRed on 4/15/2006 & rated 87 points: At retailer tasting. Pale copper/pink color. Faint musty nose, with some yeaty/doughy notes. Juicy palate, with rose petals and cherry flavors. (3114 views)
 Tasted by flashvictor on 1/23/2006 & rated 89 points: Pale pink color leads to gobs of tiny bubbles. The palate has fresh flowers, strawberry, rasberry, and a hint of toast. The finish is smooth and complex. A very enjoyable bottle of wine and a staple at our house. (3364 views)
 Tasted by frischy on 1/2/2006: Great simple pink. Had this with a bunch of fun light pizzas and it was about as versatile as one could hope for. Crisp, but not bracingly so, rasberry, strawberry, orange/hint of citrus. Just what we were looking for. Don't look for any wows, but it's an easy one to like. (1968 views)
 Tasted by AllRed on 12/7/2005 & rated 85 points: Copper tint. Strawberry and spice notes. Lovely berry fruit and dough notes. (378 views)

Champagne Blend

"Champagne blend" is a classic grape blend that typically includes Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and/or Pinot Meunier in any proportions.

However, this blend can also include Arbane, Fromenteau (Pinot Gris), Petit Meslier and/or Pinot Blanc as well.

USA

American wine has been produced since the 1500s, with the first widespread production beginning in New Mexico in 1628. Today, wine production is undertaken in all fifty states, with California producing 84% of all U.S. wine. The continent of North America is home to several native species of grape, including Vitis labrusca, Vitis riparia, Vitis rotundifolia, and Vitis vulpina, but the wine-making industry is based almost entirely on the cultivation of the European Vitis vinifera, which was introduced by European settlers. With more than 1,100,000 acres (4,500 km2) under vine, the United States is the fourth-largest wine producing country in the world, after Italy, Spain, and France.

California

2021 vintage: "Unlike almost all other areas of the state, the Russian River Valley had higher than normal crops in 2021, which has made for a wine of greater generosity and fruit forwardness than some of its stablemates." - Morgan Twain-Peterson

North Coast

The North Coast American Viticultural Area (AVA) in California, covering more than three million acres, includes Napa, Sonoma, Mendocino and Lake counties, and portions of Marin and Solano counties. (see The Wine Institute for more information)
