Instagram post 17844886255823039 In the wine world when someone says the name Harlan, one’s heart might quicken, another may salivate and still another reflect on the many memories left by the wine of the family.
💃🏼
Adventuring to the trifecta to taste, specifically Promontory, gave me much anticipation. Only once had the famed Harlan Estate wine touched these lips. One stunningly magical time. So impressed I signed up on their wine list, not knowing it could kill my monthly wine budget with a single bottle.
💃🏼
I spent the afternoon with talented winemaker David Cilli learning more about the land, the climate and their philosophy on wine. Such a fascinating proposition.
💃🏼
Stay tuned!

💃🏼⁣
This stunning sparkling from Villa Franciacorta! Briolette Demisec Rosé DOCG was a delight to the senses.⁣
💃🏼⁣
Alessandro Bianchi had a vision when he purchased one of the most famous pieces of land in Franciacorta, a sub region of Lombardy.  He first saw the Villa  village known as Borgo Villa and fell in love with this property including the 100 hectares surrounding the estate in 1960. This spectacular property contains a cellar from the 16th century.⁣
💃🏼⁣
The wine is made via the Méthode Champenoise (Traditional Method) which allows the second fermentation in the bottle and produces those fabulously fine bubbles you experience in great sparkling and Champagne. The fruit is 30% Chardonnay 70% Pinot Noir. The soils are thick clay loams which stay cool in warmer months. Their vineyards are located in Monticelli Brusati and Provoglio d’Iseo in Franciacorta (Brescia).⁣
💃🏼⁣
The notes: Fresh red fruit including raspberry and cherries, delicate perlage, a touch of bright citrus. This demi sec is exquisitely delicious. Mildly sweet and perfectly paired today with an exquisite lavender cheese I picked up in Vienna, Austria from Cheese and More by Henri Willig Kärntnerstrasse (say that three times fast).⁣
💃🏼⁣
Harvest takes place early to preserve the acidity and freshness of the grapes. 80% of the Pinot Noir and all of the Chardonnay are fermented together. The rest of the Pinot Noir is macerated on the skins for 10 hours resulting in that magical color of Rosé.  33-36 of residual sugar.⁣
💃🏼⁣
The Wine Siren approves this beautiful Sparkling!⁣
