SCHARFFENBERGER “Excellence” Brut Nonvintage Sparkling Wine

Washington State Syrahs

“…If you take your aesthetic inspiration from wine, you celebrate ephemerality, perishability, and fragility. Aromas blink in and out of existence like quantum states. As wine sits in the barrel, bottle, or glass it is always in motion, never standing still…In wine, we celebrate evanescence and the beauty of the transitory. There is no ‘test of time;’ wine can only be appreciated in the moment.”
