Winemaker Notes: 

"This sparkling wine is made form 81% high elevation Barbera and 19% mountian-grown Zinfandel. The Barbrea was grown at 1,400ft of elevation at the Dorn-Las Lomas vineyard in the Kelsey Bench AVA of Lake County, while the Zinfandel was harvested from the Lewers' Family High Rock Ranch towering 2,000 ft above sea level at the Sonoma Coast.
Staying true to its roots, the Barbera really brings the acid and bright raw-cherry flavors which are comple- mented by the Zinfandel’s raspberry flavors and aromas. While this wine is made in the charmat method to show case the varietal expression for the grapes, it received 4 months time in tank on the lees adding to some subtle secondary brioche aromas and bringing delightful complexity to the mouth feel - Unique to Wines made in this method. The mouthfeel on the wine was so nice I thought it best not to add any dosage..You know, if it ain’t broke don’t fix it..."
