“Golden ale hue; very active stream of fine bubbles. Scents of lemon and vanilla with a hint of pear nectar. Foamy on entry with stone fruit and citrus-tinged acidity. Very tart and drying close with a sweet vanilla highlight.”

Sunset Magazine

“Crisp apple and creamy lemon blend with stone fruit and a yummy toasted character.”

2 1/2 stars
“Winemakers Hugh Davies and Craig Roemer added small lots of barrel- and malolactic-fermented wine, which Schramsberg first produced in 1965. Focused aromas of stone, pencil lead, sweet bread dough, lemon rind and hints of yeast. Ripe fruit palate with orange rind on the long finish. Widely available.”
