Are you a wine lover looking for a new and exciting sparkling wine to add to your collection? Look no further than Emmolo Methode Traditionelle Sparkling Wine No. 5. Produced by the renowned Wagner Family of Wines, this non-vintage bubbly is made using the traditional method, just like they do it in Champagne. With 40 months of aging before disgorgement, it boasts superb complexity, luxurious creaminess, and super fine, focused bubbles.
The blend is 65% Chardonnay and 35% Pinot Noir, sourced from cooler coastal regions of California, yielding a wine that is both toasty and zesty. It pops with flavors of ruby red grapefruit, crisp green apple, fresh pear, Nilla wafers, lemon pith, and a gentle mineral-like savory salinity.
Emmolo No. 5 Methode Traditionnelle Sparkling Wine has received 91 points from Natalie MacLean, who describes it as “bright and dry with a lively, vibrant mousse of ripe apricot, pear, mandarin zest, baked pastry flavours with a mineral vein that runs throughout this delish sparkler”.

91 POINTS - "From the Wagner Family in CA, this very dry sparkler is a golden yellow color with a pink tinge and lots of medium bubbles in the glass It has a complex bouquet which includes brioche, white peach, pear, light red berries, orange blossom, and a savory cream cheese note. On the palate, this wine is Old-World styled, very frothy, medium minus bodied with medium plus acidity. The mouthfeel is slightly creamy and refreshing, with a pleasant bitter note. There are flavors of peach, crisp pear, wet stone, and hints of raspberry and lemon, Lovely long crisp finish. Pair with mini crab cake appetizers." - Mark, Kens Wine Guide

Scents of vanilla wafer, lemon curd, Honey Crisp apple, honeysuckle, and a hint of jasmine. Flavors of apple, wafer citrus, and zesty ocean breeze. The mouthfeel is creamy and has depth. Extremely fine bubbles provide elegance. Pair with sushi, caviar, truffle popcorn or a charcuterie board.
