Winemaker's Notes:

This distinctive medium dry wine shows off an attractive plum skin hue. The Blanc de Noirs exhibits delightful spicy characteristics of ripe raspberry and strawberry aromas and flavors.

About Domaine Ste. Michelle:

Domaine Ste. Michelle is known for its contemporary, stylish sparkling wines. Crafted from premium European grape varieties grown in Washington State's Columbia Valley, Domaine Ste. Michelle winemaker Rick Casquiero follows the tradition of French winemakers before him using the classic méthode champenoise.

Long summer days and cool nights in the Columbia Valley allow grapes to ripen fully while retaining naturally high acidity giving the wines their balance, perhaps one reason why Domaine Ste. Michelle has won consistent praise for its quality in addition to its affordability.
