Wine Review: This pale white gold colored Sparkling Wine from King Family in Virginia displays tons of random small streaming bubbles. It opens with a mild bread dough and light lemon curd bouquet with hints of Asian pear, orange zest, and bee's wax. On the palate, this wine is light bodied with integrated medium plus acidity. The mouthfeel is balanced, round, delicate, and fresh with a pleasant light froth. The flavor profile is a light lemon verbena, white tea, and saline blend with notes of chalky minerality and green apple. We also detected hints of macadamia nuts, Bosc pear, and ginger. The finish is dry, and its flavors and acidity are nicely extended. The Tasting Panel would pair this Blanc de Blancs with Legal Sea Food’s seafood casserole or with cherrystones. Enjoy - KWGTP

Winemaker Notes: This dry sparkling wine, produced in the traditional method from 100% Chardonnay, is bright and crisp. Green apple, pear and brioche on the nose, the palate is bright with a balance of volume and silkiness underlined with a light toast finish.
