Iron Horse Wedding Cuvée 2017

Warm and inviting Thanksgiving gathering with loved ones. The evening began with a vibrant sparkling beverage, expertly crafted to complement the diverse American lineup. The accents were well-balanced, with a elegant crispness that cut through the richness. The wine's richness was evident, with flavors of pink grapefruit, tart green apple, and yeasty undertones. The 73 Pinot and 27 Chardonnay, aged for three years, added strength and nuance to the pairing. The chef's signature bubbly was a delightful touch, adding a celebratory feel to the meal. The wine's acidity and minerality provided a perfect foundation for the meal's warm and cozy atmosphere. A excellent start to the gathering, and a wonderful way to toast the occasion.

Deep and comforting sparkling wine with a plush texture, it begins with a buttery, sweet brioche that gives way to a citrusy and uplifting citrus note. On the drier side, it presents with a mellow and delicate finish, leaving a contenting aftertaste.

We still thoroughly enjoy our 2005 wedding reception sparkling wine.
