This elegant, traditional-method sparkling has dried apricot and lemon curd on the palate. Great for the heat, whether that's in the summer sun or by a fireplace.
Benjamin Bridge is building a world-class reputation for Sparkling wines from a terroir that allows a long, slow, ripening of grapes for amazing acidity.
Mostly Chardonnay, with the remaining 5% split between Muscadet, Riesling, Savagnin, and Ehrenfelser, this cuvee is a nod to the farmers, interred in the eponymous cemetery nearby, who first tilled the soil on which these grapes are grown. Solemn, but not intolerably so.
"Golden yellow in colour, this icewine is intense with fruit aromas of apricot, peach and tropical fruits. Its rich palate is overflowing with sweet nectar flavours and is balanced with a crisp acidity."
