River Road NV Brut Sparkling (Russian River Valley)

Country: US / Brut
Variety: Sparkling Blend California
Winery: River Road / Russian River Valley

Sparkling wine is all about texture, and the mouthfeel on this Chardonnay-based bubbly lacks refinement. The bubbles are scoury and the finish is rough. Still, it has rich citrus, yeast, honey and pear flavors.
