“The poppy on the label of this suave blend of 55% Chardonnay and 45% Pinot Noir is a tribute to the superblooms that occur throughout California in springtime—but it also hints at the dry wine’s floral subtleties. There’s a faint touch of lilac on a nose brimming with fresh-baked sourdough, cherry, and blood orange, while rose graces the finish, preceded by splashes of wild strawberry, lemon rind, and Gala apple.” Ruth Tobias, Jan. 2025

“A nicely dry and appetizing wine with a light copper color, bright fruit flavors and good balance. Flavors of white raspberries, macerated cherries and crisp cranberries light up the palate. A light body and great acidity keep it clean and fresh.” Jim Gordon, Nov. 2024

“Very pale in the glass, the brilliant NV Brut Rosé was given 10G/L dosage and combines 55% Chardonnay with 45% Pinot Noir. Fresh and nicely textured, this offers salted minerals alongside guava and strawberry fruit flavors with orange zest notes.” Owen Bargreen, Nov. 2024

"This wine is rich and concentrated with plush red plum, Bing cherry, cantaloupe, red apple skin, baked Pink Lady apple and cranberry, with a firm mousse in midpalate. Candied lemon rind, juicy strawberry and brioche come together in the bone-dry finish." — Tonya Pitts, April 2024
