Tasting Notes
The 2020 Brut sparkling opens with aromas of toasted brioche, hazelnut, and lemon curd. On the palate, crisp mineral acidity and notes of lemon fruit lead to delicious toasted almond meringue flavors on the finish.

Located in the Santa Rita Hills AVA of Santa Barbara County, the stunning hillsides of the Rancho Santa Rosa Vineyard features vines that climb from 500 to 1,000 feet above sea level. The soils are marinebased and the weather is consistently cool thanks to ocean breezes that sweep the property daily. The vineyard is farmed with the painstaking care and attention usually associated with much smaller properties. In fact, this vineyard was originally conceived as a series of individual micro-vineyards delineated by soil, exposure, elevation, grade, rootstock and clone.
