Schramsberg Cremant 1988 Demi-sec

[wpcol_1quarter id="" class="" style=""]
[/wpcol_1quarter] [wpcol_3quarter_end id="" class="" style=""] Schramsberg is a sparkling wine winery in Calistoga (northwest of Napa, belongs to Napa AVA), and it was founded by a Germany family. This sparkling wine house follows the traditional Champenoise method to produce great wines, especially for their vintage sparklings. This Cremant is made by Flora (a cross of Sémillon and Gewürztraminer developed at UC Davis) with a small portion of Chardonnay and Gewürztraminer.

Deep tawny color.

Medium to pronounced nose. Caramel sauce, cake, coffee, milk, chocolate. All relate to desserts.

The body is medium to full, still keeps its structure (well, no bubbles after 20+ yrs). Low to medium acidity. Ripe apple, apple pie, citrus, chocolate, caramel and coffee.

Very Brilliant.
