An assemblage of 65% Chardonnay and 35% Pinot Noir, the 1995 Brut Extended Tirage is disgorged on demand. Its complex nose of minerals, toast, yeast, and dried honey is followed by a medium-bodied character of green apples, almonds, hazelnuts (or filberts as they’re known in Oregon), and flowers. This outstanding sparkler has wonderful balance, expressiveness, and length. Drink it over the next 3 years.
