Dreams, made with Chardonnay grapes, bright straw-yellow color with aromas of stone and citrus fruits with floral and spice. On the palate complex flavors of apple, melon, pineapple and creamy lemon flavors with nutty notes, vanilla and ginger spice. Long finish, ending with fruit, subtile oak and citrus mineral notes. — a month ago

At Flying Goat, the goal is to produce unpretentious, playful wines while retaining a serious quality focus and commitment to a purity of expression from single-vineyard sites such as the Solomon Hills Vineyard, Bien Nacido Vineyard, Rancho Santa Rosa, to name a few.

This intention is reinforced by everything from the whimsical labels (Flying Goat, Goat Bubbles, YNOT), to the critical acclaim Flying Goat Cellars has garnered for its impressive wines, to the impeccably balanced and delicious Pinot Noir and vintage, traditional method sparkling wines.

This 2016 blanc de noirs sparkler — made with Pinot Noir hailing from the Bien Nacido Vineyard — is medium gold in appearance, with a fine and creamy mousse, and fresh notes of just-ripe yellow apple, pear, white peach, lemon zest, citrus blossom, biscuit, toast, brioche, toasted almond, and marzipan. It has a lingering, elegant finish.

Fruity but balanced with acidity at the end. I liked this $20 at BCLS but on sale for $15 in December 2025. — 4 months ago

Pretty consistent with the 2018 if not a bit more broad. Oak comes through as toasty lemon oil and lemon curd. Certainly not delicate. — 4 months ago
