Schramsberg Vineyards, Blanc de Blancs North Coast Brut, 2022
America's pioneering sparkling-wine house, in its founding style. Schramsberg's Blanc de Blancs was the first wine they made back in 1965 and the first commercially produced Chardonnay-based brut sparkler in the U.S., famously poured at Nixon's 1972 'Toast to Peace' in Beijing. It's 100% Chardonnay drawn from cool-climate North Coast vineyards across Napa, Sonoma and Marin, made by the traditional method with small lots of barrel-fermented base wine blended in for complexity, then aged about two years on the lees. The result is dry, crisp and finely beaded, with bright apple and citrus and a touch of toasty depth. A genuinely classy domestic bubbly that holds its own with the imports.
