Schramsberg Description

The mild spring and summer weather of 2006 led to a very late harvest for us, beginning on August 25. The long growing season produced a fruit forward Blanc de Noirs, delivering generous aromas of strawberry, apple, and lime, followed with hints of spiced orange, cinnamon, and toasted hazelnut. Red apple and baked pineapple flavors give way to mid-palate notes of strawberry yogurt and brown sugar, leading to a zesty, crisp finish. This lively sparkling wine will retain its fruitful character and mature gracefully for many years to come.

Wine Spectator: 90 Points

Balances richness with delicacy, offering aromas of cinnamon pear and fresh ginger that lead to focused flavors of Meyer lemon, cherry and creamy vanilla spice. Drink now. 10,719 cases made. –TF

Wine Enthusiast: 89 Points

A little scoury, but delicious, with ripe strawberry, raspberry and orange-preserve flavors. Mostly Pinot Noir, with some Chardonnay, it shows fine acidity and a Champagne-like yeastiness. Drink now.
