J Vineyards Cuvée 20 Brut NV 25th Anniversary Magnum NV
Russian River, Sonoma County, California, United StatesDisgorged in 2010 and released now in magnum, this shows the same fine mousse with a waxy, baked apple, pear, floral, toasty, buttery, honey nose with hints of strawberry and citrus. Fresh, crisp, juicy, elegant palate with green apple, lemon, pear, nutty, toasty, buttery, tobacco and strawberry flavours. Fun, juicy style that shows some maturity now in magnum and a slight improvement over the single bottle format.
