"The 2025 Blanc de Mer is 60% Sauvignon Blanc and 40% Chardonnay. Fresh, crisp and a touch marine-like in character, the 2025 vibrates in the mouth and closes out with grip and texture. Lemon pith, white pepper and oyster shell drench the salty finish. California Muscadet!"

"The 2024 Blanc de Mer is a blend of Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc and Chenin Blanc. Energetic and vibrant, there's great texture and salinity to lift the bright florals. Lemon, white flowers and orange peel build with air. A clean, crisp finish begs for a plate of oysters."
