Cali Coast Wine Country | Laetitia Vineyard & Winery

Laetitia Vineyards & Winery in Arroyo Grande has a sparkling wine heritage going back to the early 80s, when it was produced at the same location by Maison Deutz, a Champagne maker in France. Since taking it over in 1997, Laetitia has been the Grand Dame of sparkling wine on the central coast, with 7 different sparkling bottlings at various times of the year.

Right now, here are the bubblies available now:

Non-Vintage Laetitia Brut Cuvée
2018 & 2019 Laetitia Cuvée M
2019 Laetitia Brut Rosé
2019 Laetitia Brut de Noirs
Non-Vintage Laetitia XD Sparkling

Some have notes of fruit, some lemon zest, hazelnuts, toasty and brioche-ey, though nearly all the sparkling wine here is dry, or Brut. (The Cuvée XD has some sweetness, but the other 6 varieties of sparkling wine are gloriously dry and zesty). Perfect for the quintessential sparkling-wine lover and her quintessential holiday: New Year’s Eve.

So pop those bottles carefully, and share some bubbles with those you love tonight. Or every night!
