Working from a modest winery space in Petaluma, Cruse draws inspiration from the great grower Champagnes, applying the same hands-on, detail-driven philosophy to exceptional vineyard sites across the North Coast.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Michael Mara Vineyard is perfectly suited to Chardonnay for sparkling wine, where cool coastal influences help preserve freshness and precision. The result is a wine that is focused, expressive and uncompromising in quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the nose, it is bright and finely detailed, with aromas of lemon zest, green apple and crushed stone, alongside subtle brioche and almond notes from time on lees. The palate is taut, mineral and beautifully textured, combining crisp citrus and orchard fruit with a saline edge and vibrant acidity. A fine, persistent mousse carries through to a long, elegant finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSuper rare, we only get an allocation of 30 bottle a year for the whole of the UK.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cruse Wine Co.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58118724977024,"sku":"B19052602","price":114.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0286\/0586\/files\/Image_20260520_153543_556.jpg?v=1779287803","url":"https:\/\/www.butlers-winecellar.co.uk\/products\/ultramarine-blanc-de-blancs-michael-mara-vineyard-2020","provider":"Butler's Wine Cellar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
