Steely and full of snappy acidity, with accents of red apple, gingerbread and lemon tart that build richness and plushness on the lingering finish. Drink now. From California.

Aromas of lavender, bread dough and lemon peel. Medium-bodied with a gentle mousse. Staying and pleasantly fruitful. Drink now.

Nicole Hitchcock, head winemaker at classic Sonoma sparkling house J Vineyards, crafts more than 30 wines annually. The J Cuvée 20 is a classic blend of the three Champagne grapes across the six estate vineyards in the Russian River Valley and Sonoma Coast. This flagship wine aims to be fresh and fruit-forward, showcasing richness and texture. Lemon and apple notes give way to toasted nut flavours.
