2021 Neal Family “One And Only” Blanc De Blancs, Anderson Valley, California

The sparkling flows from the bottle into the glass with a bright pale straw color with a slight lemon hue encompassed by delicate, fine bubbles bursting with wafts of fresh baked apple tart. Layers of honeycrisp beam out of the glass, with fresh zested lemon peel and jasmine flowers that intertwine with pastry crust and honeysuckle.
On the palate, the fine mousse provides a broad and creamy mouthfeel that evolves and progresses through the gears towards a precise, dry finish.

ABOUT THIS PRODUCER

Mark Neal has been walking and working organic vineyards almost daily for over 54 years. In 1966, he started as a farmer working alongside his parents on their Napa Valley farm. His love of the land, working with family, and producing small batches of wines was instilled early by his father.

This upbringing of growing organic grapes inspired him, in 1998, to build Neal Family Vineyards, which is wholly owned, farmed, and operated by his family, a rarity in the winemaking world. Today, working beside several of his children, he handcrafts exquisite and complex Cabernet Sauvignon from his estate’s biodynamic and certified organic vineyards in Howell Mountain and Rutherford.
