VARIETAL
Ariél Brut Cuvée is 100% Chardonnay with less than half of one percent alcohol. The vineyards and vintages are selected based on their consistency of delicately floral fruit aromas. Ariél Brut Cuvée retains all the natural and delicate flavor of the grapes by removing the alcohol through our own unique and patented method of cold filtration.

WINEMAKING
Ariél Brut Cuvée is produced from Chardonnay grapes fermented cold (45ºF, 7ºC) in stainless steel cooperage. The cuvée is balanced from the finished wines, with the alcohol gently removed by cold filtration, and is Charmat method sparkling wine processed prior to bottling.

WINEMAKER NOTES
Delicate floral aromas of lilac and lavender from the grape coupled with a subtle toasty oak bouquet create a sparkling wine well suited for a Sunday brunch, evening dinner party, or any festive occasion. The bright, clear finish makes it perfect before meals or after dinner with dessert.
