2019 Cruse Wine Co Demo Series Traditional Method Valdiguie Sparkling Rose Alentejo it was pressed with stemsOrganic. Valdigui (Napa Gamay) from Terry Wilsons Rancho Chimiles vineyard in Wooden Valley, Napa Valley AVA. A cooler region in south Napa, nestled against the Vacas mountains. Persistent mid morning fog prevents extreme temperatures. Vines are 40+ years old. There is no tillage in the vineyard with a permanent cover crop on silt loam soils. We often make the Valdigui from Rancho Chimiles as a pt nat, but conditions in 2019 allowed us to experiment.
