Cruse Wine Co, Sparkling Valdiguié Pétillant Naturel, Rancho Chimiles Vineyard, Napa Valley 2015

89
Tasted by: William Kelley
Drinking Window: 2016 - 2020
Light-pink in colour, the Valdiguié pét-nat leads with a bouquet of candied red fruits, pot pourri and spice. On the palate an initially exuberant mousse calms down with a few swirls, contributing nice bouyancy to an acid-driven palate impression dominated by juicy, tart berry flavours. In the pét-nat process each bottle ferments individually, so expect slight variation in residual sweetness and mousse.
