Schroeder Estate Saurus Extra Brut
posted on 19 June 2009 by sarahThe dinosaur is a metaphor for many things. A few that come to my mind include your aunt Edna’s Nisson Bluebird, anything to do with Bryan Adams, steaks’s at “Outback”, mini-golf (check out the Orange Dinosaur) and Tim Wakefield. Basically anything that should evolve can be considered a dinosaur.
This week’s wine is a sparkling wine from Patagonia made by the winery Familia Schroeder. The name of the wine line is Saurus – named after the Titanosaur bones that were unearthed during the construction of the winery. The Titanosaur was one of the largest species ever known. The bones are featured in a special cellar on site at the winery.
The wine is 60% Chardonnay, 40% Pinot Noir and produced using the Charmat method wine. It tastes leafy and peachy to me. It is fresh, has a good acidity, and a touch of sweetness. We had no problem drinking it.
My partner in crime for enjoying this bottle used the Napoleon method for opening the bottle - le sabrage. Traditionally this is done with a sword. We used a kitchen knife. This is a great party trick- you can learn to do this too
