Country: US / Blanc de Noirs Clos Pepe Vineyard
Variety: Pinot Noir California
Winery: Goat Bubbles / Sta. Rita Hills
Creamy bubbles rise through hay color in the glass, showing the slightest touch of salmon pink on the edges, with a lean and tight nose that shows tortilla dough, pink grapefruit rind and a sleek, steely gunmetal note. Crisp apple and sliced Meyer lemon flavors show on the palate, where the bubbles are foamy, the yeast is present but restrained and the style is very approachable.
