Above the Curve Vineyard 2022 Catharsis Sparkling Old Vine Semillon
Published: June 17, 2025
This Yakima Valley sparkling Semillon is made in traditional French Champagne style, aged on the lees. When poured it presents a fine mousse with light aromas alluding to brioche, honey, cream and citrus zest with a hint of nuttiness. On the palate, it delivers bright flavors of lemon with a splash of tangerine that are met on the mid-palate by a prominent minerality as persistent citrus notes carry the finish.
