2021 EVA MAE CUVÉE "ZERO DOSAGE" SPARKLING WINE
This wine is identical to the Eva Mae Cuvée, except no sugar was added to the wine used to refill the small disgorgement loss.
Prior to disgorgement the decision of how much sugar to add back is the key winemaking decision. We knew we wanted a crisp, dry style. Our two tasting panels settled on 4.00 g/L as best for showing off the positive attributes of the wine. However, these wine professionals were all enamored with the sample that had no sugar added to the "top off" addition to the bottle. Hence, a small portion of Eva Mae's Cuvée was finished with no added sugar - creating this "Zero Dosage" rendition.
Refer to the Eva Mae Cuvée page for more detail on the wine and vineyard.
