WINE DESCRIPTION

Lytle • Barnett Brut is a sparkling wine produced by Lytle • Barnett, a boutique winery located in Napa Valley, California. The grapes used to make this wine are sourced from select vineyards in the Carneros appellation, known for its cool climate and ideal growing conditions for Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes. The winemaking process involves traditional methods, including hand-harvesting and whole-cluster pressing, followed by aging on the lees for at least two years. The resulting wine is a classic Brut style, with delicate bubbles and a crisp, refreshing taste. Its key selling points include its high-quality vineyard sources, traditional winemaking techniques, and elegant style.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Lytle • Barnett Brut Sparkling is a delightful sparkling that has a straw-gold color with light green hues.The nose is alive with aromas of apple and pear with a hint of citrus zest. On the palate it is full-bodied and creamy with a fresh acidity and a fine mousse. The finish is long and persistent with a hint of minerality. Overall, it is a well-balanced sparkling with great complexity and a pleasant finish.

ORIGINS

Winery: Lytle • Barnett

Region: Oregon

Oregon is a state in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States, located between Washington to the north and California to the south. It is known for its diverse landscape of forests, mountains, rivers, and high desert, and for its vibrant wine industry. Oregon's wine industry dates back to the mid-1800s, when the first vineyards were planted in the Willamette Valley. The region was largely forgotten until the 1960s, when a group of pioneering winemakers began to experiment with Pinot Noir and other cool-climate varieties. Since then, Oregon has become one of the most important wine regions in the United States, with over 500 wineries and more than 1,000 vineyards.
