From the same prestigious Charles Heintz Vineyard and producer as the Blanc de Noirs, this Blanc de Blancs (100% Chardonnay) offers a more linear, citrus-driven expression. The cool Sonoma Coast climate and Goldridge soils produce Chardonnay of remarkable brightness and mineral precision. The extended lees aging (4+ years) brings autolytic complexity and fine, persistent mousse without heavy toastiness. The result is a wine that balances California fruit generosity with Old World restraint—complex enough for serious cellaring, accessible enough for immediate pleasure. Tiny production makes these hard to find. Drink now through the early 2030s. Pair with seafood, delicate white fish, or simply enjoy as an aperitif.

"The 2017 Blanc de Blancs Heintz Vineyard is closed at this stage, taking time to segue from initial rubbery tones to touches of flint, toast and nori. The medium-bodied palate is dry and creamy, with expansive, savory flavors and a long, layered finish. When I tasted this as a hand-disgorged sample at the winery in September 2022 (before it was officially disgorged, topped up and capped for release), it was showing generous stone fruit—this spent 40 months on the lees and may just need more time after its fairly recent disgorgement." -Erin Brooks

"Whole-cluster pressed to old oak barrels, initial fermentation with native yeasts, malolactic blocked. Spends almost 46 months on the lees in bottle. Disgorged 17 November 2021. 2 g/l dosage. Pale greenish gold with extra-fine bubbles. Smells of tidepools and toasted brioche. A silky mousse delivers flavours of bright citrus pith, brioche, seawater, kelp and just a touch of toasty oak. An amazing salty lemon-peel flavour lingers in the finish. Expansive, mouth-watering and delicious. This is a preposterously good wine, certainly one of the best California sparkling wines I've ever had."
