Argyle - Brut - Oregon Sparkling Wine - 1997

I bought a number of bottles of this fine sparkling wine to celebrate my wedding. We used only a couple of bottles, and though that day is a hazy blur, I remember enjoying it. We intend to use at least one of the remaining bottles on our one-year anniversary.

It is 25% pinot noir and 75% chardonnay. From Willamette Valley in Oregon. I love wines from the Pacific Northwest — at least, I have loved every one I have tried thus far. In fact, one of my favorite chards is from Washington, but that will have to wait until I can find another few bottles of it.
