Notes on the Schramsberg Blanc De Blancs California 2003 : WINEMAKER NOTES: Alluring aromas of tropical fruit and subtle hints of roasted pecans. On the palate, it has citrus characteristics and baked apple and ripe pear flavors that lead to a long, vibrant finish. It is crisp and refreshing in the Schramsberg tradition.SCHRAMSBERG BLANC DE BLANCS CALIFORNIA 2003

- Schramsberg Blanc de Blancs (white from white)is madefrom Chardonnay grapes in the classic Brut style. Small lots of malolactic and barrel-fermented wines are added to the winefor complexity. The wine is then aged on the yeast lees in bottle for three years prior to disgorgement. With its bright fruitand crisp characters, this sparkling wine will maintain its freshness, structure and refined finish for many years followingits initial release.

I tasted this wine on June 19, 2007.
I'm not one that normally goes for sparkling wine. However, I found that Schramsberg's product was particularly good. Later in 2007, I was fortunate to get an extensive tour of the Schramsberg winery and caves. Highly recommended.
The notes on this wine were sparse, but here goes:
Nose of classic Chardonnay, not yeasty, but fresh smelling, with a tiny bit of oak. Flavor was neutral, tart, less crisp than their 2004 Blanc de Noir. Clean and not over-oaked.
