J Vineyards Ca Cuvee NV Review
How would a day in the sun, soaking up the rays from a cloudless sky and munching on fresh pineapple while sitting in a grove of honeysuckle make you feel? Pretty great, am I right? Well if you can't make that perfect scenario happen, go ahead and grab this bottle and it will take you there. This wine is almost the same blend as the Cuvee 20 but somehow (I think it's a the slightly higher level of chardonnay) the wine is even brighter and more alive, with soft yet persistent perlage.
