2019 Argyle Brut Sparkling Wine Willamette Valley

Winemaker Notes:  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

CRITICAL ACCLAIM


Wine Spectator - "This vibrant white is loaded with toasted spice flavors that highlight the tropical fruit and toasted hazelnut accents speeding along the finish. Drink now."


Wine Enthusiast - "Argyle's Vintage Brut always offers a big bubble bang for your buck. The 2019 is 63% Chardonnay, 30% Pinot Noir and 7% Pinot Meunier. The wine's pear and toasted almond aromas intersect with a mineral note that combines saline and wet rocks. Tart green apples and lemon zest provide a vibrant one-two flavor punch. "
