Once again, we'll toast a new month with a bottle of sparkling wine that was a gift from friends. This time it is a bottle of Breathless Blanc De Noir<\/a> that long-time pals David and Peter brought from California on their recent visit. <\/span><\/p>\n

This bottle is from their private stash. As members of a number of wine clubs at nearby vineyards, they have access to wines that may not be available to the public. So while our bottle is from a single vineyard Reserve, we\u2019ve linked to the Breathless Blanc De Noir<\/a> that you could purchase. <\/span><\/p>\n

Over the years, we\u2019ve shared a lot of wine with these guys. They know we love pinot-forward sparklers. They share our love of supporting small family-owned and operated vineyards. They also have excellent taste in wine and live in an area where they can visit nearby vineyards on weekends. We often check with them before we purchase wines from that area. <\/span><\/p>\n

Here's what we\u2019ve learned about Breathless Sparkling Wines.<\/span><\/h2>\n

This vineyard is owned and operated by three sisters and honors their mother. <\/span><\/p>\n

\n

They say, \u201cGuided by the expert hand of award-winning winemaker Penny Gadd-Coster, the sisters are dedicated to sparkling and still winemaking in the time-honored French method<\/a>. By employing this m\u00e9thode champenoise\u2014the traditional second fermentation in the bottle\u2014and using the finest select Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, and Chardonnay grapes, Breathless sparkling wines pair beautifully with all of life\u2019s moments, from the everyday to the extraordinary.\u201d<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
