Iron Horse 2003 Joy! Estate Bottled Sparkling (Green Valley)

Country: US / Joy! Estate Bottled
Variety: Sparkling Blend California
Winery: Iron Horse / Green Valley

This is an incredibly beautiful and yes, joyful, sparkler, made from equal parts Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. This particular offering was disgorged in July 2016. It positively impresses in minerality, complemented by a more fulsome sense of lemon, apple and hazelnut on the creamy palate, leaving a rich trail of silk on the finish.
