Cruse Wine Co.

Rancho Chimiles Vineyard Sparkling Valdiguié 2018

My second vineyard of Cruse sparkling Valdiguie and it’s good but it’s definitely the less interesting of the two. Where Deming was a pretty hazy white strawberry, Rancho Chimiles is more upfront - visuals and flavors of bright Jolly Rancher watermelon and pink strawberry starburst. A little overpriced at $35.

You will likely have no luck getting Ultramarine in TX. Mostly via allocation only and the secondary market is quite extreme...bottles often above $200 (release is $75). Wait list is lengthy. They are wonderful wines, so hopefully you luck out!

@Shay A yep I figured. I probably wouldn’t pay $75 if I found it anyhow. But I’m super curious to try

On the lawn for Tanglewood this evening, Film Night with Andris Nelsons & John Williams, mostly playing scores from JW scored films, Dracula, E.T., Indiana Jones, Close Encounters, Harry Potter and of course Star Wars!
Slight oak, but total Grenache profile in your palate, nice but was a little chilly.
