2015 Domaine Carneros by Taittinger Le Reve Blanc de Blancs Sparkling Brut Napa Valley
$124.95
On the nose, Le Rêve expresses a lovely note of ginger, crème brulee, toasted coconut, and citrus zest. The palate opens up with pear, yuzu, brioche, and notes of a fresh baked lemon pie. This sparkling wine displays depth and purity that leads to a long, elegant finish. As with many great wines, the 2015 Le Rêve has been crafted to be long-lived and will continue to evolve for decades in the cellar. However, the wine is delicious now.

Rich nose of apricots, baked apples, walnuts, shortcrust pastry and hints of ginger and white chocolate. Salted caramel and lemon curd undertones. So full of flavor - perfectly ripe fruit balanced with pastry notes. Salty, rich and creamy with soft bubbles and a lengthy finish. Drink now or hold.
