very brut almost, too brut for my taste, but others enjoyed this stark stone brut flavor - made it work by adding cold strawberries and a bit of sugary strawberry syrup....bottle went fast after that....

Monterey County (CA) Sparkling Wine. 2016 vintage (2015 not available; %'s may vary somewhat) composition is 70% Pinot Blanc, 15% Riesling, & 15% Muscat. Francis Ford Coppola label (wine is named after his daughter) but the label also states wine is Produced and Bottled by Domino, Ceres, California.
Served @ 7c/45f, 12.0% abv. Wine is Fragrant, Floral and slightly sweet, as intended, with hints of citrus and minerality. A favorite with spouse and daughter, I find there is an aroma of perfume, perhaps like lavender, that I find somewhat off-putting.

Very pleasant, crisp floral notes followed by a subtle sweetness on the finish.

Pretty aromatics. Stonefruit, apples, and a touch of citrus. Off dry style, estery fruit flavors, and soft bead and effervescence. Good enough.
