Breathless Sparkling Wines Cox Vineyard Organic Blanc de Blancs NV Review
Sisters Sharon Cohn, Rebecca Faust, and Cynthia Faust are the founders and operators of Breathless Wines. Helmed by winemaker Penny Gadd-Coster, who has worked with Rebecca since the early aughts, they focus on wines made in the traditional method in California. This is their single vineyard Blanc De Blancs made from Chardonnay. It’s balanced and delicious and it shows the harmony of this team.The nose wafts with fresh honey complemented by a round, deep palate with pastry dough on the finish.
