Italian-themed Mellisoni Vineyards along the south shore of Lake Chelan takes inspiration for this sparkling wine project from the Veneto region where Prosecco is made with Glera grapes. The work here with Chardonnay is just as lively and festive, starting with daisies in a summer rain and light caramel. Its concentrated and fun bubbles blast in support of Granny Smith apples and a dry finish of lemon juice. Qualifying award: Seattle Wine Awards (double gold)
