Sofia Blanc de Blancs, a unique blend of Pinot Blanc, Sauvignon Blanc and Muscat, is a delicate sparkling wine perfect for any celebration. It offers seductive flavors, fresh aromatics and light effervescence—all packaged with striking, feminine flair. The fruit for our Sofia Blanc de Blancs is grown in the cool vineyards of the Arroyo Seco in northern Monterey County. Known for its Burgundian-like climate, Monterey offers ideal conditions for Pinot Blanc, which include a long growing season and soils that accentuate the profound floral characteristics inherent in this varietal.

Winemaker's Notes

We pick our grapes at lower sugar levels to ensure that our wine has a reduced alcohol content. The fruit is whole-cluster pressed into stainless steel tanks for primary fermentation, and then blended before undergoing secondary fermentation using the Charmat method. Adding small amounts of other varietals into the wine adds character and complexity to our blend with Sauvignon Blanc contributing fresh citrus qualities and Muscat conferring a gorgeous perfume of honeysuckle and apricots.

Tasting Notes

The 2007 Sofia Blanc de Blancs delivers an alluring scent of melon, passion
fruit and peach, as well as a fresh, zesty perfume of lemon. Like Italy’s best
Prosecco, our wine is vibrant and crisp, displaying bright flavors on the palate
and seductive notes of honeysuckle on the finish.
