Blended of 65% Chardonnay and 35% Pinot Noir coming predominately from Sonoma, the 2009 J Schram Rose has a very pale salmon/amber color and pronounced potpourri, kirsch, apple pie and cinnamon stick nose. The palate is very fine and fresh, with evolved fruit and autolytic notes layering on the complexity, finishing long and harmonious. - Wine Advocate (October 2017)

An especially deep-gold color and enticing, expansive aromas indicate the extra aging time this Pinot Noir-based bubbly went through. Ripe pear, honey and toasted-almond notes weave across the palate as a rich mouthfeel is picked up by fine yet persistent bubbles. It is a delicious, mature wine that shows how complex and rewarding California sparkling wine can be with time. Keep through 2022. - Wine Enthusiast (November 2017)

Sourced mainly from Napa with some Mendocino, Sonoma and Marin fruit, the 100% Chardonnay 2006 Blanc de Blancs LD has a captivating nose of honeyed toast, dried apricots, preserved lemons and quince paste with touches of cashews, incense and anise. The palate explodes with decadent savory and spice layers, supported by the racy backbone and seamless, brut-level dosage, finishing with fantastic length. - Wine Advocate (October 2017)

Made entirely from Chardonnay grapes grown in one site, the inaugural vintage of this cuvée is delicious. It offers a rich core of almond paste flavor, with inviting peach, apple and pear fruit tones, all while remaining light, bright and highlighted with wet stone and gravel. - Wine Enthusiast Buying Guide (July 2017)

Emphatically Blanc de Blancs in its firm, tight, brisk, yeasty, rich and austerely refined construction, this impressive bottling hits all the expected marks on the pathway from its precise aromas to its small and insistent bubbles and misses not a beat across the palate. It simply crackles with Blanc de Blancs vitality and can stand alone as an incisive sipper but perhaps is even better suited for service alongside a tangy, savory selection of nibbles. - Connoisseurs' Guide to California Wine (December 2017)

Sparkling rich and bold, with a hint of age and complexity, offering apple skin, ginger and roasted almond flavors. Drink now. - Wine Spectator (July 2017)

This pretty, floral wine made entirely from Chardonnay grapes from this site is both creamy and crisp. It offers impressive length, acidity and stoniness, accenting its focused green apple flavor. As it opens, it takes on a richer honey like tone that adds further complexity and deliciousness. - Wine Enthusiast Buying Guide (July 2017)

Sparkling rich and luxurious, with fresh ginger and apple tart aromas and alluring lemon and roasted almond flavors. Drink now. - Wine Spectator (July 2017)

Nicely autolyzed on the nose with a well-married mix of freshly baked bread, roasted lemons and green apples that is carried forward in its very dry, deceptively deep flavors, Schramsberg's Brut reveals a little more layering and range with each sip. It shows a certain lively Blanc de Blancs sensibility albeit with an added measure of yeasty richness, and its mousse is as constant as it is fine and creamy. It is a wine that will shine as an aperitif or a first-course companion, especially if seared scallops are on the night's menu. - Connoisseurs' Guide to California Wine (October 2016)

This off-dry sparkling is made from 78% Flora, 13% Pinot Noir and 9% Chardonnay. It works in its inviting, rich array of stone-fruit and tropical accents, met by a floral underbelly of inviting aroma. Creamy, voluptuous and well-made, it'll pair well with spicy dishes and is perfectly refreshing and delightful on its own. - Wine Enthusiast (November 2017

Lush and creamy, yet balanced, with lively acidity, this offers vibrant lemon and orange sorbet flavors, with spice accents. - Wine Spectator (October 2017)

-

Expressive watermelon and strawberry aromas open to crisp yet rich flavors of red apple and spiced vanilla. - Wine Spectator (October 2017)

...but even better is the outstanding NV Mirabelle Brut Rosé, 64% Pinot Noir and 36% Chardonnay. This shows a light pink color, beautiful delicate notes of strawberries and currants, crisp acids, a fresh, lively zesty style and medium body. - Wine Advocate (December 2015)

Where once the Mirabelle bottlings were priced with the big winery entry level efforts, now it has grown up and sits just above that tier. And, here, in the pink version, it succeeds as a distinctly fruity and friendly offering with all the juicy exuberance that California grapes can bring to the party. Its aromas are pleasantly outgoing and its open, well-balanced flavors make it a wine to remember when choosing a bottle of bubbles for all sorts of happy occasions from tailgating to birthday celebrations. - Connoisseurs' Guide to California Wine (October 2016)

A light touch of sweetness combines with ripe apple and pear flavors to make this full-bodied wine from Schramsberg taste rich and mouth filling. Layers of fruit and light spices spread across the palate and linger on the finish. - Wine Enthusiast (November 2017)

Ripe and intense with juicy fruit and lively acidity; fresh and bright. - Tasting Panel (March 2015)

I love the freshness of this wine - it’s like drinking cold mountain air early in the morning. Blanc de Blancs (100% chardonnay) is Schramsberg’s most popular wine and it’s easy to see why. Not only are the flavors delicious and pure (iced pear sorbet), but the bubbles feel different than the bubbles in most other sparkling wines - they’re crisper, firmer, more lively, more kinetic. A mini explosion. A thousand points of light(ness). All in your mouth. - Karen MacNiel (August 2016)

Delicious lemon-meringue aromas make a great start for this medium-bodied Chardonnay-based wine. Flavors are lively, lemony, with baking-spice accents. A buttery, creamy element carries into the lingering, tangy finish. - Wine Enthusiast (November 2016)

Elegant with a fine. long-lasting effervescence and notes of lemon zest, apricot, crème brulee and white rose. - The Planet Grape Wine Review (June 2016)

An especially deep-gold color and enticing, expansive aromas indicate the extra aging time this Pinot Noir-based bubbly went through. Ripe pear, honey and toasted-almond notes weave across the palate as a rich mouthfeel is picked up by fine yet persistent bubbles. It is a delicious, mature wine that shows how complex and rewarding California sparkling wine can be with time. Keep through 2022. Cellar Selection. - -- Wine Enthusiast (November 2017)
