Tasting Notes

Frank Family Vineyards Blanc de Blancs is hand crafted in our cellars using the traditional M?thod Champenoise, where the secondary fermentation occurs in the bottle. This wine aged on the lees for three years, and was then hand riddled before disgorgement. The 2013 Blanc de Blancs is pale straw in color with a continuous thread of persistent bubbles. A beautiful bouquet marked by delicate aromas of floral lemon, brioche and green apples fuse with hints of toasted almond, wet stone and cr?me br?l?e. The palate is fresh and vibrant, with a rich structure and creaminess that brings balance and intensity to the flavors. The mid-palate is luscious and creamy with flavors of freshly-baked bread and tart ripe pear. The finish shows remarkable length with an excellent minerality as notes of effervescent citrus and fresh white fruit linger.
