Sparkling Wines
Blanc de Noir 2013
93 Points
– Wine EnthusiastWith an emphasis on craftsmanship, Hermann J. Wiemer Vineyard produces distinctive sparkling wines in the traditional method. Extended lees contact builds weight and texture on the palate. A focus on early ripeness underpins subtle fruit notes with a vibrant structure. The Pinot Noir for our Blanc de Noir 2013 was sourced from early picks in our Magdalena Vineyard. It spent 41 months on the lees, softening slightly en tirage and developing notes of strawberry preserve and soft dough biscuits.
Varietal Composition: 100% Pinot Noir Estate Vineyard: Magdalena Harvest: September 12, 2013 Alcohol by Volume: 12% Disgorge Date: February 2018 Vinification: Méthode Champenoise, No fining or filtering agents, Cold Fermentation, Estate grown & bottled 
Cuvée Brut 2014

– Robert Parker The Wine AdvocateSpecially selected Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes blend beautifully to create the base wine for this sparkling brut. Red fruit melds with ripe citrus and honeysuckle while crisp bubbles lead to a refreshingly clean finish. No matter the occasion, our Cuvee Brut is a cheerful addition to any toast.
Varietal Composition: 60% Chardonnay, 40% Pinot Noir Estate Vineyards: 50% HJW, 40% Magdalena, 10% Josef Harvest: Sept. 3- 7, 2013 Alcohol by Volume: 12.0% Disgorge Date: February 2017 Vinification: Méthode Champenoise, Cold Fermentation, No fining or filtering agents, Estate grown & bottled 
Brut Rosé 2014
In rich salmon tones, our dry sparkling rosé features notes of fresh berries and toasted pastry. A delicate and consistent mousse gives way to a creamy finish.
Varietal Composition: 100% Pinot Noir Estate Vineyard: Kasper Harvest: September 7-14, 2014 Alcohol by Volume: 12% Disgorge Date: January 2019 Vinification: Cold Fermentation, Estate grown & bottled, Méthode Champenoise, No fining or filtering agents 
Blanc de Blanc 2013 (sold out)
Our classic 100% Chardonnay Blanc de Blanc is clean and racy. A grapefruit peel nose hints at its dominant citrus acidity while seventy months on the lees prior to disgorgement has broadened the aromatics considerably. Look for notes of peppermint and brioche on the finish, especially once the bottle has had time to open up.
Varietal Composition: 100% Chardonnay Estate Vineyard: HJW Harvest: September 17, 2013 Alcohol by Volume: 12.5% Disgorge Date: January 2017 Vinification: Méthode Champenoise, Cold Fermentation, No fining or filtering agents, Estate grown & bottled
