Gloria Ferrer Blanc de Noirs
Pinot Noir
| Description: | Wine maker notes Our Blanc de Noirs is predominantly made from hand-harvested Pinot Noir grapes, the hallmarks of which are a vibrant red fruit character. The creamy palate and rosy hue are a result of a small addition of Vin Gris, which was blended into the base cuvee. Over forty different clones and selections of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay are planted on our 340-acre estate in the Sonoma Carneros district. This allows us to consistently produce cuvees with complexity and clear fruit expression. Food pairing Outstanding with crab, Thai cuisine, roast pork, quail, foie gras or semi-sweet desserts. Seasoning affinities include star anise, plum sauce and tarragon. Look to triple aged gouda or hard aged cheeses with persimmons and hazelnuts 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. With most of our 335-acre estate dedicated to Pinot Noir, we believe that this enigmatic variety brings a timeless grace to our sparkling and estate varietal wines. This timeless grace comes from the Ferrer family's culture of generosity which is expressed in their commitment to high-quality, affordable wines crafted for everyone to enjoy. Wine Enthusiast 88 points - Pretty in a pink-orange hue, this is a full lushly layered wine made from almost entirely Pinot Noir that's thick and rewarding in strawberry and cherry. (Nov 2017). Ultimate Beverage Challenge 89 points - Pours a pale peach color with a seductive nose of warm sun-ripened red berries, a hint of white peach tea, and a subtly yeasty quality. On the palate, notes of citrus and a creamy texture. - 2017 Ultimate Wine Challenge (Jun 2017) Bright strawberry and black cherry aromas with subtle vanilla highlights. Creamy cherry, lemon and cola flavors combine with a lush palate, lively bubbles and a persistent finish. |
