Crocker Starr 2018 Brut Sparkling Wine, Carneros Napa Valley

Winemaker Notes: “ The pretty, light straw color draws you to aromas of fresh pear, yellow apple, honeysuckle, and a hint of warm bread. Flavors are full of crisp pear-apple, savory beeswax, and a long finish with great stony minerality. ABV 12% “

Tasting Notes: The 2018 Burt is a blend of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.  The wine offers up a fresh delicate green apple and white flower aroma.  On the palate, you are greeted by a juicy, inviting and lush texture of ripe pear and orange peel. It is well-made in a soft, silky, fruit-forward style, that is ready to drink now till 2028. Tiny production.
