The second vintage of this Blanc de Blancs from the Alloro Vineyard in the Laurelwood District AVA uses the oldest Chardonnay blocks on the estate—lavish aromas of baked bread, honey-drizzled apricots and a fresh lemon tart. The palate delivers wonderful ripe pomme fruits, freshly baked apple cake, whisps of gingerbread and a stunningly fresh finish. The mousse is persistent, and this effort really delivers.
