title: Presqu'ile 2012 Blanc de Blancs Sparkling (Santa Maria Valley)
description: The best of a strong series of sparklers from this winery and vineyard on the western edge of the appellation, this Chardonnay-based bubbly shows light toast, chalk and lemon mousse on the pure and appealing nose. The effervescence is quite aggressive, with spectacular foaming on the sip that sizzles from front to back, carrying a soft texture but framed by racy acidity.
variety: Sparkling Blend
designation: Blanc de Blancs
