Wine Review: This almost clear sparkler opens with a yeasty dough like bouquet with a hint of tangerine. On the palate, this light bodied sparkler is really foamy with a large amount of bubbles. The flavor profile is bread toast with notes of integrated ginger. We also detected some hints of minerality and almond as well. The finish is dry and its flavors linger for a while. The panel suggested pairing this sparkler with oysters or pan seared scallops. Enjoy - KWGTP

Winemaker Notes: Mumm Napa's Blanc de Blancs is a refreshing blend of Chardonnay (90%) and Pinot Gris (10%). The Chardonnay provides a crisp acidity and citrus notes, while the Pinot Gris complements with fuller stone fruit tones and spicy components. This combination delivers a wine with a vivid crispness and a rich palate.
