Origin | United States, Oregon, Willamette Valley |
A warm and dry summer lead to a concentrated, yet vibrant 2018 sparkling wine vintage in the Willamette Valley. Knudsen Vineyard, protected in the deep volcanic soils of the Dundee Hills, brings supple depth and elegance, while Spirit Hill Vineyard, in the windy and rocky volcanic soils of the Eola-Amity Hills, brings energy and minerality. Orchard fruits, citrus peel, and toasted brioche are framed around a creamy center and long, graceful finish.
Blend: 52% Chardonnay, 43% Pinot Noir, 5% Pinot Meunier

COMMENTARY: The 2018 Argyle Grower Series Brut is subtle, attractive, and lasting on the palate. TASTING NOTES: This wine shines with aromas and flavors of fragrant spices, ripe apples, and chalkiness. Enjoy it with a dozen raw oysters. (Tasted: December 11, 2022, San Francisco, CA)
