This is one of the Ste. Michelle Estates brands, and the only producer of inexpensive sparkling wines in the region. They make four at the $12 price point: a Blanc de Blancs, a Brut, a Blanc de Noirs and an Extra Dry. All are non-vintage and 100% methode Champenoise. The Blanc de Noirs is consistently the best of the lineup; some of the others can be excessively foamy and a bit chalky through the finish. But the Blanc de Noirs is a pretty, pale copper; lightly Pinot-scented, and a good quaffer that really works well with turkey.——P.G.(11/15/2005)—— 85
