2021 Ransom Willamette Valley Frizzante Bianco Sparkling

Our love for the old world’s rustic frizzantes and vibrant, terroir-driven traditional method wines inspired us to combine ancestral method techniques with modern winemaking to produce a unique sparkling wine that bridges the pétillant naturel and méthode traditionnelle sparkling wine styles into a “pet-not” style of our own. This sparkling wine shows a bright yellow hue with fizzy exuberance.

Aromas of ripe yellow apple, grapefruit, melon, and bruised pear mingle with subtle notes of toasted almond, honeysuckle and cheese rind. Flavors suggest apple cobbler, key lime and lemon meringue with herbal hints of verbena and geranium with notes of nutty marzipan. This rustic dry sparkling wine shows bright but balanced acidity with notable texture and a long sweet and sour finish that suggests fruit, herbs and minerals. Enjoy well-chilled.
