2020 Brut Vintage Cuvée – 45 Months en Tirage
Traditional Method Sparkling · First Disgorgement · 80 Cases
Vibrant & Mineral-Driven
Limited Release: March 2025 Disgorgement
The 2020 Brut Vintage Cuvée captures the cool-climate tension of the Willamette Valley. With 45 months on the lees, this wine is in a "sweet spot" of development—retaining the electric primary fruit of the vintage while beginning to show the first layers of biscuit and almond complexity. The Chardonnay-dominant blend (51%) ensures a linear, focused backbone.
The Profile: This is a structured and focused sparkling wine. Aromas of green apple, lemon zest, and wet stone dominate the nose. The palate is tense and energetic, with a fine bead that carries the mineral finish long after the sip.

Winemaker's Perspective
"The 2020 vintage produced wines with remarkable focus. At 45 months, this cuvée is vibrant and refreshing—perfect for oysters or as an aperitif. It has the structure to age, but it is showing beautifully right now." — Kimberley Kramer
Service Recommendation: Serve at 45–50°F. The vibrant acidity of this vintage shines when served well-chilled.
