Despite the challenges, the lower yields resulted in concentrated fruit with expressive flavors. Sonomas fruit showcased refined aromatics and crisp balance and Carneros fruit produced structured wines with depth. Small lots from Mendocino and Marin added intensity with bright citrus notes. This North Coast vintage balances ripeness with freshness, delivering sparkling wines of great precision, depth, and character.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eThe Schramsberg style of Blanc de Blancs is dry and crisp. Small lots of barrel fermented wines, some of which complete malolactic fermentation, are added to stainless-steel fermented wines to create added complexity in the blended base wine. After undergoing a second fermentation in bottle, the wine then ages on its yeast lees for about two years prior to disgorgement. With its vibrant, fruitful and focused nature, this sparkling wine will maintain its freshness, structure and refined finish for many years, even decades following its initial release.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABOUT THIS PRODUCER\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1466\" data-end=\"1832\"\u003eFounded in 1965 by Jack and Jamie Davies, Schramsberg revived one of Napa Valley’s oldest winery sites and pioneered traditional-method sparkling wine in California. From the beginning, the estate focused on achieving Champagne-level quality using local fruit and classical techniques—a vision that has shaped American sparkling wine for over half a century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1834\" data-end=\"2278\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003eToday, the winery remains family-owned, and the commitment to craftsmanship and sustainability is unwavering. All grapes are hand-harvested, and every bottle is riddled and disgorged by hand. Schramsberg’s Blanc de Noirs, first released in 1967, was among the first of its kind in the U.S., and it continues to exemplify the estate’s balance of innovation and tradition—producing sparkling wines with depth, elegance, and a true sense of place.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Schramsberg","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52454575800609,"sku":"P-8296","price":43.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0804\/6785\/3601\/files\/SSWINEBOTTLEPHOTOTEMPLATE_1a3a162c-54e0-454d-9282-c933d8bca503.png?v=1773865079","url":"https:\/\/perrineswine.com\/products\/2022-schramsberg-vineyards-blanc-de-blancs-brut-north-coast-california","provider":"PERRINE's WINE SHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
