Product Description
Gruet “Sauvage” Blanc de Blancs is a bone-dry, precision-driven sparkling wine that delivers serious Champagne-like quality at a fraction of the price. Made in a zero-dosage style, it offers pure citrus, green apple, and mineral-driven freshness, with no added sweetness to soften the edges. The result is a crisp, energetic, and highly food-friendly sparkler that appeals to both enthusiasts and value-driven buyers.
Origins & Craftsmanship
Produced by Gruet Winery, this wine is crafted using the traditional Méthode Champenoise, with deep roots in Champagne heritage.
Key production highlights:
- 100% Chardonnay (Blanc de Blancs)
- Made in New Mexico’s high-elevation vineyards (~4,000+ ft), which preserve acidity and freshness
- Secondary fermentation in bottle for fine mousse and complexity
- Zero dosage (Brut Nature)—no added sugar after disgorgement
- Aged on lees for added texture and brioche character
The “Sauvage” designation reflects the style:
👉 Untamed, raw, and bone-dry
👉 Focused on purity and structure rather than softness
