We are very excited to release a new expression of Joy! We call it Autumn Joy. It is vintage 2006, freshly disgorged with a tweaked dosage. Aged fifteen years en tirage and produced exclusively in magnum, it is a remarkable wine that offers complex depths of estate grown, Green Valley fruit over luscious richness gained from long aging on the lees. Made for celebrations. 97 Points, Wine Enthusiast Magazine

TASTING NOTES
Warming aromas of lemon curd, shortbread, roasted nuts, and orange peel on the nose.  Delicate and refreshing, Joy! has a light finish that calls for another sip. Tiny bubbles create creamy effervescence, and honeycomb and ripe white grapefruit flavors.


VINEYARD NOTES
Location. Location. Location. Our proximity to the ocean in cool, foggy Green Valley yields a very distinctive style of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, especially for Sparkling.


WINEMAKER NOTES
What was once shy now exhibits wonderful complexity and creaminess that comes from 15 plus years of aging on the yeast. The dosage for this wine is 6 ml Brut LEX, 6 ml BDB LEX, 8 ml 2018 Rued Clone Chardonnay.
