Angels & Cowboys Sparkling Brut NV
Our Angels & Cowboys Brut is crafted in the traditional Methode Traditionnelle. This method consists of allowing a wine to go through a second fermentation inside the bottle which produces small, fine bubbles and a creamy mouthfeel.
Iconic Champagne varieties of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay were sourced from our favorite vineyards in Northern California, including Mendocino, Sonoma and Solano counties, to produce this delicate and complex Brut. Each exemplify the terroir of the region and contribute their unique flavor profiles and aromas to
our blend.
After our wine completes 12-month en tirage (aging on the lees), a traditional dosage of liqueur d'expedition is added for balance and complexity. The base wine blend contains 24% reserve wines (from a perpetual reserve).
This Methode Traditionnelle Brut exhibits attractive notes of golden delicious apple and citrus blossom. Fresh and zesty on the entry, the enduring bubbles release fragrant toasted brioche and roasted almond. A creamy finish completes the profile of this elegant blend.
