100% chardonnay. On the nose, nice yeast, chalky minerality, lemon peel. On the palate, lemons, citrus, slight minterality, crisp acidity, medium finish.
90% pinot noir, 10% chardonnay. My 2nd favorite of the Schramsberg flight. On the nose, great yeast, mustiness, chalky minerality. On the palate, peaches, very creamy mouthfeel, really long finish. Beautiful effort.
53% chardonnay, 47% pinot noir. Good yeast, vibrant strawberries, citrus, lighter than the other sparklers of this flight, medium acidity, short finish. Least favorite of the tasting.
68% pinot noir, 32% chardonnay. On the nose, yeast, beautiful rose petals, citrus. On the palate, citrus, strawberries, crisp acidity, quite dry, little oak on the finish.
85% chardonnay, 15% pinot noir. Beautiful and favorite of the flight. On the nose, yeast, gorgeous honey accents, yellow apricots. On the palate, citrus fruits, honey, creamy mouthfeel, beautifully long finish. Great effort but a bit overpriced at $100.
