Carneros Brut expresses the juicy richness and signature balance of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Meunier grown in CHANDON's flagship estate vineyard. Carneros' proximity to San Pablo Bay brings daytime fog and cool breezes to the region, ensuring ripeness and complexity are balanced by vibrant acidity.

This wine opens with a nose of delicate and elegant florals highlighted by kumquat, quince, and nectarine. Fine bubbles and bright acidity are complemented by ginger, hazelnut, and minerality.
