Korbel Extra Dry is a meticulously crafted blend of four grape varieties. Chenin Blanc imparts a soft, fruity essence, while Chardonnay adds structure, citrus notes, and baked apple flavors. French Colombard brings brightness and a hint of spice to the finish. These grapes are sourced from Sonoma County, Clarksburg, and various independent California growers with long-standing relationships with Korbel. The classic Méthode Champenoise bottle fermentation method is used, resulting in a delicate, off-dry champagne. The term "Extra Dry" originates from champagne history, referring to a slightly sweet style developed over 150 years ago, now considered off-dry by today's standards.
