Nice sparkling wine. Good yeastiness. Not much else to it but no off flavors and a good value under $40. Champagne is better but this wine has a nice price tag.

4 years ago choice fruit was set aside for a side project. This is one of Mail Road’s inaugural foray into sparkling wine. From the single block of own-rooted, Mt. Carmel clone Chardonnay at the center of the estate vineyard.
