California,Santa Maria Valley

Tasting Notes:
Consisting of sandy loam and decomposed granite, it is exceptionally well draining restricting vine vigor. The maritime influences that funnel in from the Pacific Ocean help to maintain mild temperatures and extend the vineyard's growing season. The extra time on the vine helps balance acidity and allows the fruit to develop citrus and lush, tropical flavors.

Food Pairing: bacon jalapeno wrapped shrimp

Spain,Cava

Tasting Notes:
This exquisite Champagne-style sparkling wine is a blend of the native Spanish white grapes Xarel•lo, Parellada, and Macabeu. With a classic yeasty, biscuity nose, the slightly dry body opens up to crisp pear, zesty green apple, and almonds. Sophisticated enough for celebratory toasts, delicious enough for everyday enjoyment
