2005 J Vineyards Vintage Brut, Russian River Valley, CA, $48 (S) – Rating 90
A rich blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier with deep yeasty notes. Balanced bubbles with a toasty butterscotch nose followed by flavors of red apple and citrus with hints of butterscotch and a kiss of sweetness. Cellar aged for 5 years before the early 2012 release creating a wonderful sparkler with plenty of personality. Buy This Wine
