From the Reflections Collection and based on the 2019 vintage, the R.019 NV is a 55% Pinot Noir and 45% Chardonnay blend with 80% of the blend undergoing malolactic fermentation. Full of ripe citrus, lemon zest, wet stone and a mint water aroma, the palate has expressive red fruit intensity, a fine mousse charged with racy acidity and a long, saline finish with a slight bitter note. November 2022 and finished with an eight gram per liter dosage.
