Jacob Schram, a German immigrant, bought 200 acres on Mt. Diamond in Napa Valley in 1862 and planted 30,000 vines. He had Chinese laborers dig Napa\u2019s first hillside caves for wine aging and storage. His winery, Schramsberg, gained fame after the author Robert Louis Stevenson wrote about it in his 1883 book, The Silverado Squatters. The wine became so popular that the 23rd President of the United States, Benjamin Harrison, served it in the White House at official functions.<\/p>\n
After Schram died in 1905, the property languished until Jack and Jamie Davies purchased it in 1965. They decided to focus on making sparkling wine in the Champagne style using the traditional \u201cm\u00e9thode champenoise\u201d (aka \u201cm\u00e9thode traditionnelle\u201d) to great success.<\/p>\n
Their 1965 Blanc de Blancs would be the first commercial use of Chardonnay in American sparkling wine.<\/p>\n
Reviving the Harrison tradition, every President since Richard Nixon has featured the company\u2019s sparkling wine at the White House or some official celebration.<\/p>\n
For example, in 1972, their sparkling \u201cBlanc de Blancs\u201d wine was served as part of the \u201cToast to Peace\u201d during the visit by then-President Richard Nixon to China \u2014 a symbolic and historic diplomatic moment.<\/p>\n
The winery preserves a large portion of forested land on the estate, and from the beginning of the Davies\u2019 ownership, they adopted sustainable and preservation-oriented practices \u2014 both for the land and the winemaking legacy.<\/p>\n
In 1996, Hugh Davies, the youngest son of Jack and Jamie Davies, joined the winery full-time. Hugh had earned a master\u2019s degree in enology from the University of California, Davis. Hugh, coincidentally, was born in 1965, the year that the Davies family purchased the Schramsberg property. The winery was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1998.<\/p>\n
Jack Davies died in the spring of 1998 and in 2008, Jamie Davies also died. Today, Hugh Davies serves as CEO of Schramsberg.<\/p>\n
Schramsberg Brut Ros\u00e9 2021<\/strong><\/p>\nThis is a sparkling ros\u00e9, made in the traditional Champagne method. Base wines are fermented, then a second fermentation happens in the bottle. After that, the wine is aged on its lees (dead yeast cells) for a period to develop complexity, fine bubbles, and balanced flavors.<\/p>\n
The wine is a blend of 73% Pinot Noir and 27% Chardonnay. This combination lends the Brut Ros\u00e9 both fruit-forward character (from Pinot Noir) and structure\/spice\/length (from Chardonnay).<\/p>\n
Some small lots of the Pinot Noir are fermented in contact with their skins (a \u201cskin-contact\u201d or limited maceration for ros\u00e9) to pick up subtle color and additional depth \u2014 then all lots are blended, gently pressed, and treated carefully during winemaking. The aim is a wine that is \u201cfruitful, complex and dry\u201d, with brightness and elegance \u2014 capable of being versatile with food or standing alone as an ap\u00e9ritif.<\/p>\n
This ros\u00e9 pours a lovely salmon color in the glass. It has a relatively fine and very lively mousse. The nose offers up mouthwatering fresh berries. The palate features tart cherry, raspberry, a hint of yeast, some unexpected citrus, and zippy acidity. There is a nicely balanced dryness, sometimes uncommon in ros\u00e9s. It wraps up with a clean, refreshing finish. ABV is 12.6%.<\/p>\n
Pair this sparkler up with seafood \u2014 lighter fish like salmon or halibut; maybe even sushi, shrimp or other shellfish. Its acidity and freshness complement seafood nicely. The winery itself suggests pairing with dishes ranging from \u201csushi, salmon, and rock-shrimp\u201d to a board of cheeses, fresh fruit, etc. Also consider lighter meats or poultry, salads, fresh summer dishes, and fruit-based desserts (red-berry tarts, fruit salads).<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
