Schramsberg Blanc de Blancs is where this Napa Valley house began. It was the first wine Schramsberg made, back in 1965. It was also the first commercial American brut sparkling wine made from Chardonnay. In 1972 it was poured at the famous Toast to Peace in Beijing.
Every drop is Chardonnay from cool North Coast sites in Sonoma, Napa, Mendocino and Marin. A small share ferments in barrel to add depth. The wine then gets its bubbles in the bottle, just like Champagne. It rests about two years on its yeast before release.
Pour a glass and bright fruit rises first. The winemakers point to fresh apple, pineapple, Asian pear and lemon blossom. Warmer hints of lemon meringue, fresh bread and pie crust come next. On your tongue, crisp acidity carries green apple, lemon zest and lime. Lemon curd and a touch of sugar cookie fill the middle, and the finish is tangy and clean.
Critics like it too. Wine Spectator gave the 2023 vintage 93 points and praised its long, vibrant finish.
This is a great food wine. Try it with oysters, crab cakes or ceviche. It also suits grilled sea bass, lemon chicken and even a mild Thai curry. Aged Gouda and soft triple-cream cheeses work well on a party board.
If you want a crisp California sparkler with real history behind it, you will enjoy this bottle. Chill it well and open it for brunch, a toast or a quiet Tuesday.
