Creamy, balanced and harmonious. Our 'Evenstad Reserve' Multi-Vintage Brut M.V.5 Sparkling Wine opens with subtle notes of almond and apricot, layered with a refined saline lift and hints of honey biscuit. On the palate, the wine is creamy yet energized, with a vibrant entry that bursts with freshness before settling into a balanced mid-palate. Fine bubbles gently lift the texture, carrying flavors of ripe Bosc pear, soft citrus, and delicate white floral notes. The finish is long and luxurious, defined by elegance and a seamless integration of all elements.

Our multi-vintage sparkling wine stands apart through its origins in estate vineyards typically reserved for our single-vineyard Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Each version, a small percent of reserve wine is held back in small vessels in the cellar, with components dating back to our inaugural sparkling release in 2014. This layered approach builds complexity and continuity across vintages, a hallmark rarely seen in sparkling wines from the region. An impeccable choice for any discerning sparkling enthusiast.

"This is now the 5th edition of this beautiful wine. This was aged on the lees for three years and then spent eight months in the barrel and was given 8G/L dosage. Roughly equal parts Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, this offers a silky mousse with plenty of lemon oil and oyster shell flavors alongside hazelnuts and shades of white truffle. This is very Oregon meets Krug and will go neck and neck from anything in this region. Enjoy over the next ten plus years. Drink 2023-2033."
