About the wine
Sophisticated sparkling wine from Sonoma's cool Russian River region
-
Rob's Blanc de Blancs is made exclusively from Chardonnay grown in the Russian River Valley, which has long been recognised for its success with cool climate varietals like Chardonnay.
-
Packed with millions of bubbles, it displays aromas and flavours of crisp green apple, citrus blossom, pear, lemon zest and hints of fresh brioche. The bubbles are balanced by a zippy acidity which contributes to a clean and refreshing finish.
-
An excellent pairing for oysters, fresh crab and other seafood, let the wine?s acidity substitute for the squeeze of lemon that usually accompanies these dishes. Save this wine for a special occasion, or pop it at your leisure to make any occasion special.

Food match
Blanc de Blancs can be served with a variety of oyster species. Their citrus, apple and pear nature coupled with a crisp acidity are a perfect match. Other raw fish pairings include sushi, ceviche and some caviars. A crab salad would be fun also.

Meet the winemaker - Rob McNeill

Rob’s had a hand in Napa’s sparkling wine game since its infancy, getting his boots wet at Chappellet and Schramsberg and later leading teams for Scharffenberger, Piper-Sonoma and Mumm. That's quite the pedigree!
-
Thanks to you, this seasoned sparkling professional has a new mission – to make elegant, esteemed bubbly more accessible to all!
-
He's rubbed elbows with rock stars, made championship bubbly for the major leagues and raked in 90-point scores as a critic darling – but 35 years into this business, this is the first time Rob's making sparkling under his own personal label. That’s all thanks to supporters like you.
