J. Schram Rosé, North Coast – 2015
-
Introduction
-
Schramsberg, the pioneer of premium quality American sparkling wines, is proud to present its ninth vintage of J. Schram Rosé. This sparkling wine is the result of a singular focus to produce a California sparkling rosé comparable with the finest made anywhere in the world. This wine is blended from the vintage’s best Chardonnay and Pinot Noir wine lots from Schramsberg’s collection of 115 cool-climate partner vineyard sites in Carneros, Anderson Valley, Sonoma Coast, and Marin. Following secondary fermentation in the bottle, this wine was aged on its yeast lees for seven years in Schramsberg’s historic caves. It was then hand-riddled and finished with a select brut dosage. It is the companion to Schramsberg’s J. Schram Blancs and J. Schram Noirs, considered
by many to be the ultimate expression of artisan American sparkling wine.J. Schram Rosé is the epitome of grace, style, and elegance in a glass, it lends itself to be served as an aperitif, with a first course or a light main course. Courses might include consommés, cedar planked lobster, scallop ceviche, seared swordfish, fresh crab, roasted poultry, or braised pork loin.
