2018 Michael Shaps Méthode Sparkling

White

VA - Virginia

$40.00 / 750 mL Bottle

Alcohol 11.5%

This wine was made in the méthode traditionnelle, a labor intensive process where wine undergoes a secondary fermentation in the bottle, creating bubbles. This particular vintage is 100% Riesling, and was barrel fermented in older French oak. Aromas of citrus and spice give way to a tartness on the palate with smooth, delicate notes of vanilla and toast. Pairs well with most foods, but especially brie and strawberries.
