Great winemakers love the opportunity to try something new and are particularly captivated by experiments with promising results. One such experiment has resulted in this exclusive wine. Starting her career in the 1970s, founding winemaker Eileen Crane was fortunate to have the opportunity to conduct trials with varieties not widely used in sparkling wine. She became intrigued with Pinot Gris, a white wine grape variety grown in the Champagne region, and discovered how well it complemented Chardonnay. In 2012, she created a new wine based on this brilliant potential. Our Blanc de Blancs, produced in méthode traditionnelle and aged a minimum of three years, has incredible structure and freshness from its core of Chardonnay, highlighted by beautiful fruit and floral notes of the Pinot Gris.
