Mirabelle
Blanc de Blanc North Coast NV
Our Mirabelle Blanc de Blancs (white from whites) is made from Chardonnay, one of the classic three grape varietals used in Champagne. This flavorful, bright, bubbly exhibits the crisp acidity and vibrant apple/citrus fruit that is characteristic of cool-climate Chardonnay. The grapes are grown in the unique pockets of California’s North Coast, including the Napa-Carneros, Sonoma Coast, Mendocino County, and Marin County. The fruit is hand-picked in the early morning hours at optimal maturity. Individual lot fermentations allow the winemakers to carefully select the components that make up the finished blend.

The Mirabelle Blanc de Blancs opens up with aromas of Granny Smith apple, baked pineapple, and lemon zest, which are complemented by notes of warm wheat bread and toasted almond. Its vibrant flavors of pear, Cara Cara orange, and honeycomb bring a tartness and depth to the mid-palate, which carries to a long, flavorful finish.
