Tasting note
Bella Union's 2015 Blanc de Blancs should suggest lemon, pear and green apple, with a soft floral aroma. Chardonnay gives the Napa Valley sparkling wine an expectedly crisp profile, fine bubbles lending texture and acidity keeping the orchard fruit bright. Its drinking horizon ended in 2022, placing it beyond the projected span; condition will be important. If freshness remains, expect a gentle finish of citrus and savory notes.
