Black Star Farms 2008 Brut: Review


Sparkling Wine
Black Star Farms
Suttons Bay, Michigan, USA
Leelanau Peninsula
11.5% abv
$22.00 a bottle
Blend: 68% Chardonnay, 24% Pinot Noir, 8% Pinot Blanc

Appearance: straw in color and some really aggressive bubbles happening here

Aroma: fizzy fresh apple with a hint of plum

Flavor and Mouthfeel: super fine fizzy feel tingles the palate with apple, tart apple, and I think I get a little lemon peel on the back of the tongue with a touch of apple blossom, the profile is very dry yet crisp on the delivery and the long lingering aftertaste.

  2. Thanks for visiting the blog. I am currently reviewing your 2008 Vintners Select and I am enjoying this wine. I am looking forward to another visit to your winery sometime this winter.
