Bravium Wiley Vineyard Blanc de Noirs Sparkling Wine has a brilliant, light copper color that has aromas of candied peach and citrus fruit with a sweet custard or cheese pastry backing. Hints of lees, herbs, and pleasant oxidation mingle with the bright, fresh fruit (i.e. a recently cut apple versus a day old apple). Energetic and intense. Texturally rich, savory and finessed with a slightly dry, but quenching finish that is exceptionally flavorful and persistent. This single vineyard Brut Nature sparkling wine is less than 3 g/L residual sugar, and was bottled unfiltered. Pair this Sparkling Wine with a delicious cheeseboard or drink on its own. Wiley Vineyard is situated in the famed “Deep End” the relatively cool, westernmost portion of Anderson Valley. This Sparkling wine was fermented and aged for 10 months in used French and Hungarian oak barrels. One 750mL wine bottle of Bravium Wiley Vineyard Blanc de Noirs Sparkling Wine, 12.5% alcohol by volume. Bravium is a sparkling wine that transparently speaks of a special place and a specific vintage, an expression inspired by my favorite Grower Champagnes.
