Description

A lovely blend of chamomile, white flowers, smoke and peach sorbet introduces the 2023 Extra Brut Prosecco Conegliano Valdobbiadene Rive di Ogliano. Silken upon entry, it gains depth and complexity as tart orchard fruits combine with saline minerals and steely resonance toward the close. The 2023 cleans up beautifully, wonderfully long and crisp. It leaves the palate salivating as sour lime nuances slowly fade.

Varietal

Champagne Blend

The sparkling wines of Champagne have been revered by wine drinkers for hundreds of years, and even today they maintain their reputation for excellence of flavor and character, and are consistently associated with quality, decadence, and a cause for celebration. Their unique characteristics are partly due to the careful blending of a small number of selected grape varietals, most commonly Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. These grapes, blended in fairly equal quantities, give the wines of Champagne their wonderful flavors and aromas, with the Pinot Noir offering length and backbone, and the Chardonnay varietal giving its acidity and dry, biscuity nature. It isn’t unusual to sometimes see Champagne labeled as ‘blanc de blanc’, meaning it is made using only Chardonnay varietal grapes, or ‘blanc de noir’, which is made solely with Pinot Noir.
