Schramsberg Vineyards
Crémant Demi-sec Napa Valley
Crémant Demi-sec is a delicate, off-dry sparkling wine made from the unqiue Flora grape variety, produced with approximately two-thirds the pressure of the other sparkling wines and presents a creamier texture with more exotic flavors. Flora is a cross of Sémillon, providing strength, depth and minerality, and Gewurztraminer, complimenting with fruit forward character.
Schramsberg has sourced their Flora from one specific, organically farmed block from the Yount Mill Vineyard for over forty years.

“Aromas of ginger and white flowers lift from the glass, followed by flavors of crisp apples and sweet peaches. Built from a unique blend of the highly aromatic grape Flora combined with the more traditional Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, it is a crisp, lengthy and pleasing sparkling wine.”
