Marimar Estate Blanc de Noirs 2021 is the first sparkling wine from the Californian winery of the Torres family. Crafted using the champenoise method, this single-varietal wine made from the noble French grape pinot noir comes from the low-yield Doña Margarita vineyard, located on the Sonoma Coast and named in honor of the clan's matriarch. Very fine bubbles, a refreshing minerality, and notes of flan, brioche, and fruit tart in a fragrant Californian sparkling wine not to be missed.
Marimar Estate Blanc de Noirs 2021 es el primer espumoso de la bodega californiana de la familia Torres. Elaborado mediante el método champenoise, este monovarietal de la uva noble francesa pinot noir procede del viñedo de bajos rendimientos doña Margarita, ubicado en la costa de Sonoma y denominado así en honor a la matriarca del clan. Burbuja muy fina, una refrescante mineralidad y notas de flan, brioche y tarta de frutas en un fragante espumoso californiano para no perderse.
Our second vintage of Blanc de Noirs showcases intense aromas of wild strawberries and floral notes of rose petals, with very fine bubbles and a refreshing minerality reminiscent of wet stones. The palate is clean and refreshing, with classic notes of brioche, flan, and fruit tart. I would recommend serving it at 7-9ºC as a delightful aperitif, on its own or with tapas, as well as with raw or cooked seafood, smoked salmon, light dishes, sushi, and any type of Asian cuisine.

The company began its journey in 1986 under the leadership of Marimar Torres, with the planting of the first 24 hectares of vineyards in the western hills of Sonoma County. Currently, Marimar Estate Vineyards & Winery manages over 100 hectares, certified organic, spread across the American Viticultural Areas (AVA) of Russian River Valley and Sonoma Coast, with chardonnay, pinot noir, and albariño as the predominant varieties. The Californian wines of the Torres family are distinguished by their pronounced European style. Complex, expressive, and elegant, they have earned prestige both in the U.S. market and internationally.
