We think you’re going to love our latest sparkling creation. It’s 100% Chardonnay – what’s known as a Blanc de Blanc in the Champagne world. As the charming little fairy who graces the bottle suggests, this wine will be a sure hit at your next party – the social butterfly.
When we first started talking about this project, it was because we wanted a bubbly that was just light and lovely, perfect for those times when less is more.
Think: the little sister of our Rosé d’Or.
When Rob decided to use the Chardonnay from our friend Jimmy Leyden’s vineyard called Courting Hill (we also do Pinot Noir from here), he kicked it up a notch. We’re getting definite lemon and pear flavors with honey crisp apple on the nose. It is dry and light, but with an unmistakable creaminess on the mid-palate. Rob says it reminds him of his favorite Burgundian-style Tarte aux Pommes.
Still, it’s got all of those high-spirited qualities we were after in the beginning. Of course you can drink it just the way it is, with its fresh, lean, crisp structure, or for fun you could add some Crème de Cassis (we made our own at home) to it to make the famous French apertif, the Kir Royale. Or perhaps a little Aperol and fresh-squeezed grapefruit juice? The possibilities are endless, and like the name suggests, we hope you’ll enjoy it with all the lighthearted joy we intended.

Wonderful sparkling wine !
From Gwen Forquer of Corona Del Mar, California on .
I discovered this wine through the Atticus Hotel in McMinnville. This was the welcome drink at check-in. I usually am not a sparkling wine drinker but after a long drive decided to try it. To my surprise I found it quite refreshing and delicious. During my stay in this charming small town I visited the R Stuart tasting room right around the corner from the hotel. My glass of bubbly was just as wonderful as before. I loved the tiny bubbles. My only regret is that I did ship a case home :-)
Highly Recommended

We thoroughly enjoyed Bubbly! In fact, we're saving a bottle to enjoy for New Year's!
