Processing All grapes at J are hand-harvested into small quarter-ton bins and placed as whole clusters, without destemming, into our special Coquard press for a gentle pressing cycle. Grape juice from the various vineyard lots is fermented and kept separately until blending decisions are made in mid-November. The cuvée (blend) was assembled in December of 2003, cold stabilized to remove excess tartrates and then bottled in the spring of 2004. The cuvée included 25% oak cask aged non-vintage wines that were carefully selected for this blend. Ageing After the secondary fermentation occurred in the bottle, the wines aged for more than three years in our cool cellar. In early 2007, the wines were carefully riddled to remove the yeast sediment responsible for the aging character. Following disgorging, a dosage liqueur of reserve wine and pure cane sugar was added to balance the wine. An additional six months of ageing on the cork before release ensured a perfect balance of flavors. Tasting Notes This J non-vintage Brut gracefully opens up with crisp lemon peel, honeysuckle and delicate yeast aromas. Upon entry, these notes follow through to a mix of <city w:st="on"></city><place w:st="on"></place>Fuji apple and grapefruit interlaced with toast, caramel and almond flavors on the mid-palate. The acidity adds just enough liveliness and the citrus zest leads to a lingering, warm pear and lush finish. Demonstrating an illustrious combination of yesterday and today, its fresh exuberance showcases layers of depth and complexity. <hr /> <table cellspacing="1" cellpadding="2" border="0" bgcolor="#b9b9b9"> <tbody> <tr> <td> Appellation:</td> <td>Russian River Valley<placetype w:st="on"></placetype><placetype w:st="on"></placetype> </td> </tr> <tr> <td> Alcohol:  </td> <td>12.5% alcohol </td> </tr> <tr> <td> Production:</td> <td> 17,400 cases </td> </tr> </tbody> </table>          <LI>SKU: BRNVCV <LI>Volume: 750ml Other products in the category <A HREF="http://www.nexternal.com/jwine/Category17" TITLE="All Wines (For Office Use Only)">All Wines (For Office Use Only)</A>: <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/jwine/Product117 TITLE="1997 J RRV Vintage Brut, Late-Disgorged">1997 J RRV Vintage Brut, Late-Disgorged</A> -- Very Limited Production, Téte de Cuvée <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/jwine/Product155 TITLE="1998 J RRV Vintage Brut, Late-Disgorged">1998 J RRV Vintage Brut, Late-Disgorged</A> -- 92 Points by Wine Spectator, Téte de Cuvée <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/jwine/Product39 TITLE="1999 J Vintage Brut">1999 J Vintage Brut</A> -- Out of our Cellar! <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/jwine/Product156 TITLE="2000 J Vintage Brut">2000 J Vintage Brut</A> -- New Sparkling Just Released in October! <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/jwine/Product111 TITLE="2004 J Zinfandel, Russian River Valley">2004 J Zinfandel, Russian River Valley</A> -- Last of the Vintage <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/jwine/Product145 TITLE="2005 J Pinot Noir, Robert Thomas Vineyard">2005 J Pinot Noir, Robert Thomas Vineyard</A> -- 2005 J Pinot Noir, Robert Thomas Vineyard <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/jwine/Product136 TITLE="2006 J Chardonnay, Russian River Valley">2006 J Chardonnay, Russian River Valley</A> -- 2006 J Chardonnay, Russian River Valley <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/jwine/Product142 TITLE="2006 J Pinot Noir, Barrel 16">2006 J Pinot Noir, Barrel 16</A> -- Current Release: J 2006 Pinot Noir, Barrel 16 <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/jwine/Product140 TITLE="2006 J Pinot Noir, Nonny's Vineyard">2006 J Pinot Noir, Nonny's Vineyard</A> -- Current Release: J 2006 Pinot Noir, Nonny's Vineyard <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/jwine/Product139 TITLE="2006 J Pinot Noir, Russian River Valley">2006 J Pinot Noir, Russian River Valley</A> -- Current Release: 2006 J Pinot Noir, Russian River Valley <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/jwine/Product143 TITLE="2006 J Pinotage, Russian River Valley">2006 J Pinotage, Russian River Valley</A> -- Current Release: 2006 J Pinotage, Russian River Valley <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/jwine/Product137 TITLE="2007 J Pinot Gris, Russian River Valley">2007 J Pinot Gris, Russian River Valley</A> -- Current Release: J Pinot Gris, Russian River Valley <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/jwine/Product138 TITLE="2007 J Viognier, Hoot Owl Vineyard">2007 J Viognier, Hoot Owl Vineyard</A> -- Current Release: 2007 J Viognier, Hoot Owl Vineyard <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/jwine/Product29 TITLE="J Brut Rose">J Brut Rose</A> -- J's non-vintage Brut Rosé: SF Chronicle's Top 100 Wines of 2006! <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/jwine/Product65 TITLE="Liquid Gold: Ratafia Gift Set With Glasses">Liquid Gold: Ratafia Gift Set With Glasses</A> -- The perfect set of Liquid Gold: 1 bottle of Ratafia plus two cordial glasses <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/jwine/Product6 TITLE="Ratafia">Ratafia</A> -- Our Ratafia dessert wine is the harmonious ending to a perfect meal. <A HREF="http://www.nexternal.com/jwine" TITLE="J Vineyards & Winery Products">J Vineyards & Winery Products</A> <A HREF="http://www.jwine.com">J Vineyards & Winery</A> J Vineyards & Winery Online Store powered by Nexternal <A HREF="http://www.nexternal.com" TITLE="ecommerce solutions">ecommerce solutions</A>
