A sparkling example of Riesling produced à la méthode champenoise and finished nature, that is to say, with no additional sweetening. This wine, if not a raison (or Riesling) d'être, is sympa beyond words with Asian or fusion cuisine. Winemaker Notes Representing the last vintage of riesling grapes hand harvested from the gravelly soils of our late Ca' del Solo estate vineyard, located just outside of Soledad in Monterey County, this effervescent Riesling was fermented to dryness in stainless steel, before tirage bottling in the traditional méthode champenoise style in June 2007, then aged on lees for 30 months and disgorged in February 2010. No dosage was added to the wine, as to maintain its crisp, refreshing aspect and ensure the fullest expression of its bracing minerality.
