Montreaux Brut Sparkling Wine

Montreaux Brut Sparkling Wine Wine Details
Price:

Description: The commitment to produce California’s finest vintage Brut prompted the development of Montreaux in 1983. Montreaux is entirely hand crafted, from planting of the vines to the labeling of each bottle. This is our guarantee of quality and enjoyment by each of our customers. The grapes are grown on our estate owned vineyards in the Oak Knoll District of the Napa Valley: our Home Ranch Vineyard and our Knollwood Vineyard. This region of Napa Valley provides a cool climate from which we produce grapes that are lush with rich flavors and an abundance of fruit. Adopting some of the oldest champagne making techniques (which today are used by only a few producers in the world, such as Krug and Bollinger), Domaine Montreaux is barrel fermented and barrel aged. These ‘old world’ techniques coupled with long aging time in the bottle (10 years or more en tirage) produces the creamy richness and depth that is the hallmark of our Montreaux style.
