2016 | Schlumberger Wein | Reserve Chardonnay Brut

In the glass light yellow and elegantly sparkling, with an emphatically lively character. In the nose sweetly after ripe quinces and apples as well as after citrus fruits. At the palate after exotic fruits with a soft and creamy texture, noticeable roasting flavours. Long lasting in the finish.

Producer Information

Michel-Schlumberger’s first vines were planted in 1979 by Jean-Jacques Michel, who was a native of Switzerland. Michel traveled far and wide across Northern California searching for the perfect place to establish his winery. He immediately recognized the potential of the Dry Creek Valley climate and soils to produce premium Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, and Chardonnay grapes, and the contoured exposures of Wine Creek Canyon, in particular, to create very unique flavors, especially in red wines. In 1991, Jacques Pierre Schlumberger joined the winery team, bringing with him a more than 400-year family legacy of winemaking in Alsace, France. The Michel-Schlumberger brand was born, and over the years, the reputation of the wines and the beauty of the Estate garnered attention from around the world. In 2011, Schlumberger retired and the Estate evolved again, with investment and new management committed to taking the wines and the winery to even greater heights. The mission-style architecture of the Estate harkens to Michel-Schlumberger’s European roots while honoring the influence of the Spanish in early Californian history. Today, the winery’s white stucco walls, terracotta tiled roof, bell tower, and grand courtyard offer a spectacular place to enjoy a day in the Wine Country. Our Estate heritage is reflected in our guest experience. This includes motorized tours through the vineyards, walking cellar tours through our production area, barrel tastings, and seated reserve tastings of our award-winning, low production wines.
