Caraccioli Cellars Brut Cuvée Estate 2019

98 Points | JD
“Winemaker/owner Scott Caraccioli draws complexity for the 2019 Brut Cuvee Escolle Vineyard from a selection of clones grown at his estate vineyard, which add tremendous length and breadth across the palate, blending 60% Chardonnay and 40% Pinot Noir. It has great structure with phenolic ripeness, and layers of salinity and oyster shell mixed with a purity of pear and strawberry. Lengthy and complex, with a hint of richness, it’s gorgeous and will age another 10-15 years.” - Virginie Boone
