2006 Blanc de Blanc

A Bubbly wine (Chardonnay) from Schramsberg in US - California.

Description/Review: Historically, this was the first commercially produced sparkling wine in the US and was also the wine served as a toast by President Nixon in 1972 during the historic "Toast to Peace" in Beijing, China. This vintage is classically dry and crisp, it is a pure delight. Winemaker J Davies even recommends aging it for several years to allow more fruit development. - Erskine

Notes: Really tiny bubbles - hints of almond. Nice flavor. Not typical Chardonnay. 12-5-2009
