An easy drinking sparking wine from Anderson Valley in California.
Nicely balanced with nice complexity and mouthfeel. Crisp and fresh tasting.
Would be nice to revisit it in 3 to 5 years.
A nice sipping wine that will also pair nicely food.
A blend of 52% Chardonnay and 48% Pinot Noir. Disgorged in 2025.
12.5% alcohol by volume.

Blend of Chardonnay (55%) and Pinot Noir (45%). Pale gold color. Aromas of freshly baked bread, toasted nuts, white flowers, citrus zest and a chalky/smoky note. Flavors of grapefruit, green apple, tropical fruits, roasted nuts, and a lovely note of brioche. Long and lingering mineral driven finish. Vibrant acidity along with wonderful tension and complexity. Creamy mousse and texture with a steady stream of fine bubbles. So beautifully savory. Thank you Jason B. for sharing this beautiful wine (and storing it so well) to toast Matt A’s 50th Birthday! — 12 days ago
Pale lemon in colour - crystal clear. Probably drinking this a little young even at 7 years of age. Initial funky notes amongst the nutty notes. At 7 years the oak is assimilating with the peach. Great intensity as you come to expect from the Art Series. At least another 5 plus years in the cellar would not be a problem. — a day ago

Yeasty and bright. Liked the rose better but this was very good — 2 months ago
Opened sometime prior to service. The 2022 pours a straw color with medium viscosity. On the nose, the wine is developing with slightly reductive notes of match stick, yellow apple, pineapple, a touch of butter (this is Napa after all) and flinty minerals. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+. I’ve been digging the direction of this wine the last few vintages. A bit of trivia, this does not see malolactic and yet has that creamy texture and touch of butter. Lees contact? Drink now through 2037. — 4 days ago

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of 90min before and during dinner. The 1995 pours a straw color with a gorgeous, persistent mousse. On the nose, the wine is developing with apples, ripe passion fruit, fresh brioche, lemon curd, toasted marshmallow and minerals. On the palate, the wine is dry with high acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long. A freaking delicious Champagne. Drink now through 2035. — 11 days ago
