Gloria Ferrer Brut Sonoma County
Chardonnay,Pinot Noir
| Description: | An exceptional value. Round and full-bodied, with rich, ripe apple, pear and honeydew melon flavors. This complex sparkler has a nice touch of yeast and doughy aromas that give it added character, turning creamy with a touch of vanilla. Wine maker notes Whole cluster pressed to avoid bitter compounds. 20 to 25% of the premiere taille (first press) used to add richness and structure. Juice is naturally settled overnight (debourbage) to encourage a clean fermentation. Proprietary yeast used for the second fermentation provides a delicate house signature. Blend of 20 different base wines fermented in stainless steel tanks at 55F to 60F. Wine spent a year and a-half en tirage (on the yeast). Food pairing A tremendously versatile wine that is equally delicious with shellfish, crab, roasted chicken or sushi. Seasoning affinities include lemon grass, fennel and white pepper. Look to hard aged and triple creme cheeses with Meyer lemon compote for the cheese course. Producer As the first sparkling wine house in California's renowned Carneros region, Gloria Ferrer Caves & Vineyards was established in 1986 by the Ferrer family. Gloria Ferrer embodies winegrowing history, time-honored tradition, and centuries-old winemaking practices in creating exceptional sparkling and estate varietal wines blended to pair perfectly with food.
